Sharing Pizza Knowledge

Pizza Night


Go Blue Dad and I have a deal that I show him what I learn in my cooking classes each weekend. After Kaitlyn goes to bed, I teach him some new tricks and we put it to use.

We made a pizza from start to finish, minus the sauce. We used Ted Allen's recipe for the pizza crust* and topped it with pizza sauce, sliced chicken, capers, red onion, sliced garlic, mozzarella cheese and Parmesan reggiano cheese.


*The crust is pretty much flour, water, yeast and kosher salt. We used only 1/2 packet of yeast as we wanted a thin crust pizza.



Overall, we REALLY enjoyed the pizza. Our only critique is that we will shred the mozzarella next time instead of using thin slices. We intended for it to brown as you can see in the photos.



This pizza cost less than $10 to make and it was delicious. We will definitely make it again!!
