Take the finest producers of every pizza product made - I've been
to their inner sanctum where they've spilled their secrets ... the
cheesemakers, flour millers, sauce canners - well, you get the
picture - and I kept my eyes open. I know secrets that even the best
in the pizza industry don't know. And it's time to tell.
It's not about finding one more pizza recipe in a magazine or on the
Internet. (Have you ever noticed they all look alike?) The problem is:
They just don't work. Know what I mean? You end up with yet one more
homemade pizza that is just okay - maybe even good - but not what
you were looking for. Disappointment once again.
You've probably figured it out - it's not the recipe. It's in the
ingredients and techniques! Miss that and you miss everything.
I'll show you all you need to know and where to get everything you
need to make the best pizza right at home.

Isn't it? I enjoyed reading that, that is definitely one to bookmark.

I have to say though, that baking tray thingy with the holes is way
better than a pizza stone, the only gadget other than scales I use all
the time, I'm no good trying to slide pizza onto hot terra cotta. It
usually goes down the back. lol.

I build the pizza on parchment paper, then use a peel to transfer the
pizza to the oven. A piece of cardboard would probably work as good as
a peel.

My point is that parchment paper ranks nearly as high as a scale for
baking bread and pizzas.

Hi yeah, thanks for that, I started off using the parchment paper
thing, I thought it would make things easier to get the dough on the
stone, but it stuck like buggery, so I never did that again. I couldn't
manage to use it as a peel either. I do have a peel. Sits at the back
of the cupboard gathering dust and cobwebs. : -)

I was, by pure coincidence watching Heston Blumenthal (See Wiki if you
go Huhh?) on TV last night. He made pizza on the back of a hot frying
pan under the grill. It looked great, really fantastic, and it was done
in two minutes.

I make fantastic pizza, better than I got in Italy and my partner just
got back, guess what we're have tonight. : - )

You don't need to spend your hard earned cash on it. How dumb do you
think we are?
