Summary:
"Make pizza night a fun weekly tradition with these 52 seasonal pizzas paired with salads for a complete meal-from the award-winning author of Bread Toast Crumbs and creator of the blog Alexandra's Kitchen Creating consistently great pizza from scratch isn't complicated--even kids can get in on the fun and lend a hand! Whether cooking pizza in your kitchen oven, a tabletop pizza oven, or an outdoor wood-burning oven, it all starts with the dough. In Pizza Night, professional chef Alexandra Stafford presents six simple doughs including one that's gluten-free, for making deep dish, Neapolitan, and Sicilian style pizzas, along with easy techniques for perfecting your crust. Mix it by hand or use a stand mixer; make the dough the same day or ahead; make it extra cheesy and decadent or go the healthy road-pizza-making easily adapts to busy schedules and tastes, and requires very few pieces of special equipment. Each pizza is paired with a salad made with seasonal ingredients, and a few simple dessert recipes (Chocolate Chip Cookies, Lemon Semifreddo) make pizza night complete. From a springtime Asparagus, Salami, and Crème Fraiche Pizza served with a Snap Pea Salad with Walnuts and Citrus, to a Broccoli Rabe and Smoked Mozzarella Pizza accompanied by a Farm Share Harvest Slaw to a Roasted Hatch Chili Pizza with Corn and Oaxaca with a Melon, Cucumber and Mint Salad, Pizza Night serves up a year's worth of inspired, satisfying, pizzas and salads to make pizza"-- Provided by publisher.
