 Great easy to read book January 4, 2008

I like this book for making my pizza dough because the author gives you the approximate amount of flour and ingredients to use to make the dough... so many other pizza books or dvd just tell you to ' feel it ' well its a book and I'm new so I dont know what its suppose to ' feel ' like - this book is more specific about the amounts which really helps.
The book does not mention it but use a pizza stone thats been properly heated and buy a pizza screen for that pizza parlor look and feel.
I also like secrets from the pizza parlor dvd but I think this book is a better deal - if you are serious about making your own pizza buy both ( I did ) it really helped! Amazon also sells the dvd so buy both and have fun. The dvd has pdf's and links where to buy pizza supplies and flour.
Also the author is very serious and correct about the high gluten flour. Its a MUST and you will never find it at your local grocery - you will have to order it in but its worth it..
I bought my hi gluten flour from Honeyville in California... (XL High Gluten flour 16-510 PP) they sell it online in 50lb bags with free shipping and it really makes a difference than normal bread flour.
Well worth the thirteen bucks! - if you still are having trouble then get the ' secrets from the pizza parlor ' dvd ... easier yet just get them both - but get the stone, flour,screen they are needed to do it right.
Worth the price just for the crust December 12, 2007

I've tried so many pizza crust recipes and got this book based on reviews here at Amazon. I haven't even progressed to all of the sauces and toppings, but the crust is fabulous and really easy to work with.
Great Book - Things I never thought of!! September 26, 2007

This book explains pizza from a whole different point of view. It has really helped us in knowing how to make a great pizza in different ways.
I really enjoyed this book and will use it forever.
Thanks

This book is all you'll ever need to make great pizzas. I had tried several times over the years and each result was gross. I chose the author's simplest method ( a perforated pan, he offers several equipment-related techniques ) and I even used store-bought pizza sauce ( Ragu Homemade style as I wanted to get the pizza crust working before I tackled making my own sauce ) AND MY FIRST PIZZA WAS DELICIOUS ! Pay attention to Dr DeAngelis's basic rules and you can't miss. No other cookbook has brought me such sucess --- Bravo !!

I tried the recipes in many Pizza books before I bought this one. None of them helped me to make Pizza that was worth the effort. This book changed everything. I am now making Pizza better than anything I could buy and best of all; my family thinks the Pizza I make is the best! You will never find a method for a better crust than the one in this book.
All the secrets to making incredible Pizza are in this book. If you follow the author's recommendations as written, you are guarantied to make delicious, incredible Pizza. Tomato sauce pizzas, breakfast pizza, black bean pizza, Buffalo wing pizza (my favorite) and many, many more!
