Notes about Recipes in this book

  • Neapolitan-style pizza dough

    • Bloominanglophile on September 13, 2013

      I have made this dough several times, and it has always worked out nicely. It probably isn't the ultimate recipe--I haven't tried enough other ones to dole out a judgement. I love to make this when my daughter has friends over and they stay for dinner. Designing their own pizzas is usually a novelty for them! When making pizzas with the kids, they roll the dough out on parchment paper, top them, and then I slide the whole thing into the oven onto my baking stone. It solves all sorts of transfer problems and you can write each kid's name on the parchment!

  • The pizza maker's sauce (Salsa pizzaiola)

    • JKDLady on July 26, 2015

      This was a very nice pizza sauce. I did purée it at the end as I wanted to use it for a Pizza Margherita.

Publishers Text

Can't resist the warm, enticing aroma of a perfect homemade pizza with a crisp crust topped with creamy mozzarella and juicy tomatoes? Now you can become an expert pizza maker using Charles and Michele Scicolone's Pizza--Any Way You Slice It. Their simple techniques and 100 innovative recipes will have you making top-quality, authentic pizza right in your own kitchen.

Inspired by a trip to Naples, the birthplace of pizza, Charles and Michele became determined to find ways to duplicate their favorite dish at home. Charles, who didn't even know the difference between a teaspoon and a tablespoon, had to start from the beginning. He made pizza after pizza, and soon Charles, who had never cooked anything in his life, was able to make perfect pizza from scratch. Friends were amazed not just by how good Charles's pizzas were, but by how simple his techniques were.

Now, after mastering the art of making pizza, the Scicolones share their easy-to-follow tips and shortcuts: from mixing, kneading, and shaping the dough to choosing the right toppings. Pizza--Any Way You Slice It includes Italian classics, such as Pizza Margherita (tomatoes, mozzarella, and basil) and Florentine Pizza (with spinach), and pizza American style, with favorites like Chicago Sausage and Cheese Deep-Dish Pie and New Haven White Clam Pizza. And there are easy recipes for unique stuffed pizzas, Italian regional pizzas, focaccia, and flatbreads--something for every taste.

Rounding out this comprehensive pizza book are recipes for pizza accompaniments, pizza history and trivia, a suggested wine list, and a list of the Scicolones' favorite pizzerias in the United States and Italy. With Pizza--Any Way You Slice It, you're just one recipe away from perfect pizza at home.
