Homemade Pizza – 7 Questions And Answers On How To Make Pizza At Home
I really love pizza! I just love pizza! There are so many infinite variations for pizza and the best part about it is that it truly is an economical dish to make and it goes with anything that you can possibly think of from domestic beer to Dom Perignon Champagne!
I cook alot of pizza in my humble little kitchen and my friends and family are always asking me to make pizza for this or that function or gathering. I have even taught a couple of young singles groups in a local church how to make pizza at home and I know that everyone that I have taught to make a pizza will never look at pizza the same way again!
Well, along with making pizza for people and teaching people how to make pizza I inevitably have to answer questions about pizza making in the home. This is fine with me as this is what a teacher is for, answering questions. So, I thought I would share some tips with you on how you can make really impressive, tasty and mouthwatering pizza at home the way you
want it!
Here are five of the most common questions I get from friends, family and students about making pizza at home. These are fairly straightforward questions and you will see just how easy it is to make pizza at home.
1. Is pizza dough hard to make? No! There are hundreds of pizza dough Recipes out there and it is not hard to make and you don’t need a bread machine to make pizza dough. How did people do it in the old days? By hand of course. You can however use a food processor to make pizza dough if you don’t want to do it all by hand. It’s not hard, you take your pizza dough ingredients and mix it up with a large wood spoon in a large bowl and then once fairly solid you take the dough out and put some flour on your kneading surface and knead it for a few minutes and then grease up the dough ball with a little olive oil and put in a bowl covered for about thirty minutes and voila’ it’s done and ready to use!
2. Does it take a long time to make the pizza dough? No! The steps above will take all in total to make the dough no more than fifteen minutes. When you oil up the dough ball and put some oil in the bowl you are going to put the ball in, that step will take about thirty minutes because the dough will have to rise, that is why there is yeast in pizza dough.
3. Can you make a pizza dough that does not take thirty minutes to rise? Yes! often I make a pizza dough out of flour, water, salt, olive oil, eggs, some butter and dijon mustard and some baking powder and it’s ready to use in ten to fifteen minutes depending on how much kneading you put into it. It needs no rising time and comes out really good and chewy!
4. Do I need to have a pizza stone? No! You make pizza on a pizza tin and there are many shapes and sizes of pizza tins out there. There are regular aluminum and non-stick versions of pizza tins. You can use a square baking dish to make Sicilian style pizza. You can also use the back side of a baking sheet to make your pizza. You can make pizza on the back of a cast iron skillet if you how as well. Now the truth of the matter is that a pizza stone makes the best crusts hands down! But just because you don’t have one doesn’t mean that you can make killer pizza in your home.
5. Do I have to have a pizza oven in my home? No! As long as your home oven can achieve high heat you will be fine! There are some big differences between the beast sized oven you find at the pizza shop or the brick style ovens you find in Pizza Shops and your standard home four burner stove/oven combo and naturally the first big difference is the amount of
heat that the beast sized oven can get over your oven. So in order for you to get pizza oven heat in your oven crank it up to 500 degrees and let it heat up for twenty minutes before you put your pizza in and your pizza will come out just fine.
6. Can you make a pizza on a BBQ grill? You bet you can! Just remember that when you want to make a pizza on the grill to heat the grill up for about ten minutes and then you need to brush your grill irons with oil to do two things: 1. season the grill iron and 2. to keep things from sticking to the grill irons. Then, here comes the trick: make sure you pizza dough is rolled out either round or in a rectangle to make grilled Sicilian pizza. Make sure you have your toppings and cheese close at hand. Put your dough on the grill for one or two minutes then take a pair of tongs and check the underside of your dough to make sure that it has turned a bit brown. Take the dough out with your tongs and put it on a platter of some kind and make sure uncooked side down on the platter. Put all your sauce, cheese and toppings on the lightly cooked side and the slip the pizza back onto the grill and cover the lid. Depending on your grill size and heat it should only take about five minutes or so and then you will have killer griller pizza!
7. Can you use a store bought pizza dough? Of course you can! There are many truly high quality pizza doughs on the market today in your local grocer or in specialty shops all over the place. Heck in some parts of the country and I am sure in yours you could go down to your local pizza shop and ask to buy a dough that is already made and it will only cost a few bucks and it is ready to go the second you get in the door of your home! In my humble opinion even if you buy a store bought dough or one from your local pizza shop you are still in control of what goes into it and on it and therefore this is still a killer homemade pizza!

Artisan Breads at Home $34.95 There are few joys in life as simple yet profound as taking that first bite from a lovingly baked loaf of bread, the crust crackling between your teeth. Maybe you’ve dreamed of baking a boule, a baguette, or a brioche yourself, but assumed it would be too difficult. Well, fear not. You do not need to be a baking expert to make fine artisan breads at home. All it takes is the knowledge of ingredients, equipment, and techniques found inside this book.Backed by The Culinary Institute of America’s expertise, Certified Master Baker Eric Kastel takes you by the hand and gently guides you through the mysteries of bread baking. Beginning with a thorough discussion of ingredients and equipment, Chef Kastel explains everything from how to shop for flour to how to use a shower cap during the dough’s rise. From there, he outlines the twelve steps of bread baking, describing each one in detail. With these steps in mind, you’ll be set to mix, shape, and bake anything from ciabatta to rye bread, challah to pizza dough. And once you’ve mastered these basic breads and are inspired to try something more complex, Chef Kastel will demonstrate advanced techniques such as how to build a sourdough starter from scratch, which you can then use to create more than a dozen varieties of sourdough.Packed with tips, troubleshooting advice, and step-by-step photographs, the chapters include:Basic breads and rolls: Using little more than flour, water, yeast, and salt, you can bake Kaiser Rolls, Rustic Rye Bread, Whole Wheat Bread, and the most deliciously simple White Bread you’ll ever taste.Enriched breads and rolls: Made with butter, eggs, sugar, or other additions for a softer crust and a more tender crumb, these recipes include Ham & Provolone Rolls, Cinnamon Raisin Swirl Bread, Cottage Dill Buns, and even several coffee cakes.Flatbreads: Lightly leavened with yeast, puffed up with steam, or rolled as thin as parchment, these |

In Alba, savor the refined taste of the white truffle accompanied by a hearty glass of Barolo. Head to Parma for a sampling of prosciutto di Parma, and don’t forget to pick up a wheel of parmigiano-reggiano. Travel to the hills of Tuscany, where a glass of red Vino Nobile di Montepulciano accompanies your meal of filetto d’anatra con tartufo (truffled duck breast) and to Campania, home of Naples, the Amalfi coastline, and, of course, pizza, in its many forms, but almost always topped with mozzarella di bufala. Descriptive sidebars key readers in to the best restaurants in town, where to buy the ingredients to prepare the dishes featured (and where to shop for the wine to accompany them) as well as tips on what to see during a visit. A sprinkling of recipes rounds out this information-packed resource. Included is an appendix with in-depth listings to help travelers plan their culinary journeys: what wine cellars to visit, where to dine, and how to navigate a busy market.Whether you’re an armchair traveler or an Italophile planning another trip, this volume provides an excellent guide. |

Freezers seriously simplify meal preparation--you can plan ahead, save time, and shop economically, yet still serve fresh, flavorful suppers. Freezers are great for those dark winter months when you want to have dinner on the table fifteen minutes after you get home from work--think lasagna, stews, and soups--and they are also useful for entertaining friends when time is short.In Can I Freeze it? veteran food writer and stylist Susie Theodorou explains the tips, tricks, and rules of freezing food, from containers and wrappers (foil or Tupperware?) to the best methods for retaining moisture and flavor to what ingredients and dishes can and can′t be frozen. She provides a wealth of recipes, along with color photographs, for whole and partial dishes. Some are completely preassembled (for example, chicken in a marinade), frozen, and cooked later. Others combine frozen ingredients with fresh ones--pair a pastry from the freezer with berries from a farm stand, or defrost a sauce and use it to top fish straight from the market.The recipes include everything from meat and fish to pizza and veggies, plus desserts. Many dishes can be served two ways. For example, prepare classic Bolognese sauce and serve some of it for dinner over pasta. Freeze the rest and use it later to make meat and potato pie. In addition, there is a chapter on cooking for a crowd in which Susie shares her best recipes for entertaining large groups of family and friends. Serve lamb ragu ravioli with rosemary brown butter, Mexican chickpea stew with green salsa, or hearty lasagna--your guests will never know you prepared most of the meal in advance, making dinner parties a breeze!

Excerpt: South Deerfield, Massachusetts – Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The area was once home to the Pocumtuck tribe, who were driven away by settlers relocated in 1673 from Dedham. In retaliation, on September 18, 1675 the Indians attacked and killed Captain Thomas Lathrop and a small force in the Battle of Bloody Brook, before being routed by reinforcements. Thereafter called Bloody Brook or Muddy Brook, South Deerfield in 1809 attempted to be set off from Deerfield because of the distance to its meetinghouse, in addition to religious differences with its minister, the Reverend Samuel Willard. The grant was refused and the village remained part of Deerfield, but South Deerfield nevertheless dedicated its own meetinghouse in 1821. Situated beside the Connecticut River, it would develop as a small farming community. South Deerfield is sometimes regarded as the poor cousin to Old Deerfield, home of Deerfield Academy. Despite the preconception, one can find retail and service establishments of many sorts in South Deerfield.

Cheese Board: Collective Works, Bread, Pastry, Cheese, Pizza $21.99 When a tiny cheese shop opened for business on a quaint Berkeley street in 1967, there was little hint of what the shop-and the neighborhood-would grow into over the next 30 years. The Cheese Board became a collective a few years later, and Chez Panisse opened across the street, giving birth to one of the country’s most vibrant food neighborhoods, the epicenter of California’s culinary revolution. Known and loved by locals and travelers alike, the Cheese Board is equal parts bakery, cheese store, pizzeria, and gathering place-a patchwork of the local community, where a passion for good food runs deep. For the first time ever, THE CHEESE BOARD presents the classic recipes that have made the store one of the San Francisco Bay Area’s most acclaimed gourmet destinations. Complete with a history of the shop and neighborhood, a cheese primer, and all the classic recipes-including the corn-cherry scones, cheese rolls, and zampanos, all of which have a cult following-THE CHEESE BOARD is as rich and varied as the institution that inspired it. |

In this book, a single-volume edition of the bestselling Perfection books, Heston focuses his creative talent on reinventing some of our most well-known (and most abused) dishes.He travels around the world in search of definitive versions of sixteen classic dishes: Roast Chicken & Roast Potatoes, Pizza, Hamburger, Bangers & Mash, Fish Pie, Steak, Spaghetti Bolognese, Risotto, Fish & Chips, Chilli Con Carne, Chicken Tikka Masala, Peking duck, Black Forest Gateau, Treacle Tart & Ice Cream, Trifle and Baked Alaska.Among the many adventures on his quest, he travels to Delhi and makes an MRI scan of the marinated chicken in his Tikki Masala; he discovers the secret to the ultimate crispy duck in Peking and experiments at home by inflating a Gressingham on a footpump; he walks the Dickensian streets of Lambeth and learns how to capture the essence of a fish and chip shop in a perfume bottle, and he explores the Willy Wonka-esque Tate&Lyle factory and tastes some seventy-year-old syrup that proves an inspiration for the flavour of his treacle tart. Total Perfection is an original, inspiring and fascinating voyage around the culinary globe. |

Learning to Sail: The Annapolis Sailing School Guide for Young Sailors of All Ages $14.95 Few forms of outdoor recreation offer the freedom, the challenge, the sheer exhilaration and excitement of sailing. Sailing can be about racing for the prestigious America’s Cup against an international field of competitors, or to see who buys pizza for the neighborhood dinghy racing club. Sailing can mean crossing oceans on great voyages of discovery, or just cruising a pleasant bay on a sunny day with a few good friends, a small, simple boat, and no particular destination or schedule.Some people say that sailing is expensive or hard, but it’s really neither. A very good small sailboat can be bought for less than a very bad used car, and is a lot more fun and safer to boot. If you don’t want to buy a sailboat or can’t afford one, you can always rent one; many communities near water have a sailboat rental shop. And as for sailing being hard? Nonsense. It isn’t hard, it’s just different.This book is about learning to sail. It follows the techniques perfected at the world-famous Annapolis Sailing School, where thousands of people just like you have learned to take tiller in hand and harness the wind. You’ll learn your way around a boat—what its parts are called, what they do, and how to use them to ride the wind wherever you want to go.It’s written using the language of the sea passed down for centuries from sailor to sailor—port and starboard, fore and aft, tack and jibe. These words may sound odd at first, but before you know it you’ll think and talk like a sailor, and not feel like an extra in a bad pirate movie.Read this book, spend some time on a boat, and practice your new skills, and pretty soon you’ll be a sailor, one of a select group of people who think there’s nothing finer than hiking out to windward in a close-hauled dinghy—racing against friends or a neighboring sailing club, or alone and just for the fun of it. Or kicking back with your feet up on the centerboard trunk and running slowly downwind, listening to the |

Excerpt: Belcourt Theatre The Belcourt Theatre is a 2-cinema theater operating in Nashville ’s Hillsboro Village district. It is operating by a non-profit organization, and features independent films, as well as live performances.History Opening in 1925 as the Hillsboro Theatre, the Belcourt originally operated as a silent movie house, boasting the most modern projection equipment and the largest stage in the city. As the community grew, the Belcourt adapted to the new needs of the neighborhood by providing a regular home for two highly successful performance groups. Nashville Children’s Theatre , the longest running children’s theatre of its kind, and the venerable Grand Ole Opry both shared the Belcourt stage during the 1930s. The Opry’s tenure from 1934 to 1936 shaped the format the radio show still uses today. Due to the intimate size of the room, the Opry began playing each show to two separate audiences. Performers found themselves playing two fifteen-minute performances rather than the single half-hour performance to which they were accustomed.In November 2007, the theatre was purchased by a non-profit coalition of local arts activists (operating as “Belcourt Theatre Inc.”) for $1.4 million. Today The Belcourt currently features a variety of entertainment events, including film much of it independent as well as live performances within the same venue. Its concession stand is a rarity as it includes a variety of food and drink items, including pizza, wine, and draft beer from local brewerey Yazoo . The venue is |

Restaurants in St. Louis, Missouri: Ted Drewes, Fitz’s, Crown Candy Kitchen, Imo’s Pizza, Amighetti’s Bakery, Bevo Mill, St. Louis $8.59 Purchase includes free access to book updates online and a free trial membership in the publisher’s book club where you can select from more than a million books without charge. Chapters: Ted Drewes, Fitz’s, Crown Candy Kitchen, Imo’s Pizza, Amighetti’s Bakery, Bevo Mill, St. Louis, Gus’s Pretzels, Acero. Excerpt: Ted Drewes is a frozen custard shop in St. Louis, Missouri, USA. The original St. Louis shop, located on Natural Bridge Road, began serving in 1930. While the original location is now closed, the Chippewa Street (part of historic U.S. Route 66) and South Grand Boulevard locations remain in operation today. The Route 66 location is famously known as the only frozen-dessert stand in the entire United States to operate 24/7 during summer months. Both locations are extremely popular during the spring and summer months, and are a tradition for many after attending St. Louis Cardinals baseball games. Unlike some other frozen custards, Ted Drewes offers only one flavor, vanilla, and adds other flavorings and toppings as ordered. The shop may be best known for a specialty called a “concrete”. A concrete is custard blended with any combination of dozens of ingredients, served in a large yellow cup with a spoon and straw. A concrete is blended so thick that it and its spoon do not fall out when the cup is turned upside-down. Servers often demonstrate this before handing an order to the customer. Seasonal ingredients, such as apple and pumpkin pie, appear for a short period every year. Dairy Queen’s Blizzard, which is made with soft serve, is somewhat similar, but is not as thick as the Ted Drewes frozen custard concrete. Ted Drewes started making frozen custard while with a carnival. The first fixed location was near St. Petersburg, Florida in 1929. The first St. Louis shop began serving in 1930 on Natural Bridge Road near Goodfellow Blvd. Less than a year later, it was moved further west. A second location was opened at 422… More: |

Twisted Head: An Italian American Memoir $0.99 What’s in a name? For Carl Capotorto, everything is in a name. The literal translation from Italian to English of Capotorto is “twisted head.” This is no accident. Carl grew up in the Bronx in the 1960s and ’70s with the Mangialardis (“eat fat”) and Mrs. Sabella (“so beautiful”), incessant fryers and a dolled-up glamour queen. Carl’s father, Philip Vito Capotorto, was the obsessive, tyrannical head of the family–”I’m not your friend, I’m the father” was a common refrain in their household. The father ran Cappi’s Pizza and Sangwheech Shoppe, whose motto was “We Don’t Spel Good, Just Cook Nice.” It was a time of great upheaval in the Bronx, and Carl’s father was right in the middle of it, if not the cause of it, much to the chagrin of his long-suffering mother.Twisted Head is the comedic story of a hardscrabble, working-class family’s life that represents the real legacy of Italian-Americans–labor, not crime. It is also the poignant memoir of the author’s struggle to become himself in a world that demanded he act like someone else. Tragic and funny in equal measure, Carl’s story is propelled by a cast of only-in-New-York characters: customers at the family pizza shop, public school teachers, nuns and priests at church, shop owners and merchants–all wildly entertaining and sometimes frightening. Somewhere in all the rage and madness that surrounded Carl in his youth, he found the bottom line: he loved his family, but he had to let them go. Twisted Head is an exorcism of sorts. With plenty of laughs. |
