Series Summary

Everyone loves pizza, but when we're at home, we're usually restricted to delivery or frozen varieties. Although ordering pizza from our favorite place can be perfect for some situations, wouldn't it be nice if you could recreate that perfect pie at home, in your own kitchen? It's easier than you think – once you have your ingredients, the rest is simple. The key to making a delicious, restaurant-style pizza at home involves understanding dough and how to make it, managing the proportion between ingredients like the sauce and cheese, and knowing when the pizza is done and ready to be pulled from the oven. Even if you have never felt the need to learn how to make New York style pizza for yourself, you might be interested to see exactly what goes into creating one of America's favorite foods. In this instructional video clip, our expert will show you, step by step, exactly how to prepare incredible restaurant style pepperoni pizza from scratch. Learn how to knead the dough, create a palette for the ingredients, and load it with toppings. Learn about the different kinds of cheeses and which ones are the best for pizzas, get tips on arrangement of toppings. Learn how to use the pizza peel to check on a pizza's progress in the over, and when to remove it. Brick oven pizzas have never been so easy to make!

Video Transcript

"Hi my name is Greg Goldberg, you can reach us at www.minettis.com today we are going to be talking about pizza making. First we are going to talk about the basics of dough. Now not everyone knows this dough has two sides to it. When you make the pizza first the smooth side and I lightly floured this it is very important to always keep the dough floured and the rough side. Now the reason it is important is because the rough side would stick to a pizza stone or the oven where the smooth side is going to be able to lift it off. So you have your nice finish product with a crisp crust. Basic ingredient of dough we are talking about water, flour, salt, and sugar. Now salt and sugar is just a taste if you like it particularly sweet a sweet dough go ahead and add a little extra sugar. Yeast is another very, very important ingredient you add a lot of yeast you get sort of a Greek style pizza real fluffy and airy. If you don't add much your are going to be looking at a thiner crisper, more Italian style. Either way it is great! Then what you are going to be doing when you have the dough you need to make sure to flour it like I said."
