1. What's New: A Grande's Wine Tale
My Dad embodied the heart and soul of
pizzatherapy.com As a matter of fact, this entire website is a tribute to him. He had a big heart and a wonderful sense of humor. In the following video, I talk about one of his adventures. I call it the A Grande Wine Tale:
2. Take Your Oven to The Limit to Make a New York Pie Roger writes: I recently read an article
written by a New Yorker who spent years replicating the pizza from his favorite
NYC parlor. Only problem was, the oven had to be about 700 degrees F, not
possible in a home oven without using the cleaning cycle and some trickery to
make the My Response: I recommend getting
your oven temperature as hot as possible. Roger wrote back and sent me the link... I visited the site and my jaw dropped! I have to say...this guy knows how to make New York style pizza at home. I will have to eat my words. His name is Jeff Varasano. Jeff has spent the last six years developing the recipe. He is a New Yorker who moved to Atlanta and was motivated by desperation because he could not find a New York style pizza anywhere He has put up a page that gives away all of his secrets. He holds nothing back. His explanations are long and involved. He gives the recipes, the per cents of flour to water to yeast etc. etc. It's all here. He gives away all of his research and tricks. And he has pictures of the pizzas to prove it. The pizzas look like they came out of a coal fired pizzeria oven. Incredible! He truly has taken his pizza to the next level. The most amazing part is that he cooks his pizza with the cleaning cycle of his oven. He discloses a secret to by-pass the oven controls so that he can "stress" the oven. He makes his oven reach temperatures that far exceed any type of normal limits. It's kind of like putting rocket fuel in a VW. He also offers a disclaimer: Don't try this at home boy's and girls! You will be astounded at these pizzas. He has packed more pizza information on this web page than many websites. I am impressed. You will be as well.

"Pizza is sexy..." "Pizza is sexy..." Mililani, Hawaii- “Pizza is sexy, right now,” contends World Famous Pizza Maker, Ed LaDou. LaDou, best known as the creative pizza genius behind Wolfgang Puck’s Pizza as well California Pizza Kitchen, was responding to the current state of pizza and the infatuation of the media for all things pizza. LaDou who has been creating pizza for over 30 years, owns and operates Caioti Pizza Café, in Studio City, California...
4. Everybody Loves Pizza- 10 BEST PIZZAS IN U.S. According to Jff Ruby and Penny Pollack the following is a listing of what they consider to be the best in the country. Part of their research included searching 500 pizza locations. The official Press Release follows: "Everyone has a favorite pizzeria and a definition of what "real" pizza should be. From region to region, or even neighborhood to neighborhood, loyalties inspire heated debate between, say, diehard New York thin-slice lovers and Chicago deep-dish fanatics, or between New Haven aficionados and healthy California pizza devotees. Just in time for National Pizza Month in October—and the 100th anniversary of America’s first pizzeria—Chicago magazine dining editors Penny Pollack and Jeff Ruby gather the collected wisdom of the country's top pizza-ologists in EVERYBODY LOVES PIZZA: The Deep Dish on America’s Favorite Food (Emmis Books,). Mixing history and nostalgic photos, recipes to try at home and a listing of more than 500 places to find great pizza in America, Pollack and Ruby name names and guide pizza lovers to the finest pies around. Here are the authors’ picks for the 10 best: Una Pizza Napoletana • New York, New York. Est. 1996: Anthony W. Mangieri makes four pizzas: marinara, Margherita, bianca, filetti—and when the dough runs out, he’s done for the night. This guy is serious, he’s focused, and he makes the best pizza in the country. Delorenzo’s Tomato Pies • Trenton, New Jersey. Est. 1936: New Jersey’s pizza history is nearly as rich as New York’s and DeLorenzo’s rules the Garden State. Just pick up the first slice of tomato pie, savor the healthy blanket of cheese, and marvel at the thin crust that bends but won’t break.
Pizzeria Bianco
• Phoenix, Arizona. Est. 1994:
Rain or shine, people stand in line for hours to taste Chris Bianco’s tribute to
Naples, a marriage of “tradition, influence, and integrity.” Pizano’s • Chicago, Illinois. Est. 1997: Amongst Chicago’s heavy hitters, Pizano’s often flies in under the radar. But the addictive pizza—a cheesy blanket, sweet tomato sauce, and juicy sausage chunks on a pastry-like thick (yet delicate) crust is like deep-dish without the heft. Punch Neapolitan Pizza • St. Paul, Minnesota. Est. 1996: Despite its unlikely location, Punch serves blackened-edged charred-bubbled pizzas with a perfect mix of mozzarella di bufala and crushed San Marzano tomatoes. For an extra 50 cents, you can order it “wet”—extra tomatoes and olive oil—in the true Neapolitan style. Wells Brothers Italian Restaurant • Racine, Wisconsin. Est. 1921: This family restaurant has defied the odds since the 1940s—no hand-stretched doughs here. The raw dough makes at least two trips through an old bakery roller, which turns out the thinnest crust and most satisfying crunch imaginable.
Sally’s Apizza
• New Haven, Connecticut. Est. 1938:
Not the first pizza parlor in New Haven but after 67 years, it’s the best.
Every pie that emerges from the legendary coal-burning oven has that amazing,
crispy-chewy, almost burnt, oblong-shaped crust that made New Haven pizza
famous. The Cheese Board Pizza Collective • Berkeley, California. Est. 1967: Vegetarian pizza by committee sounds like a really bad idea, but this co-op comes up with a different sourdough pizza every single day and every day is a new revelation.
Frank Pepe Pizzeria Napoletana
• New Haven, Connecticut. Est. 1925:
The standard for white clam pizza—the signature of pizza parlors up and down New
Haven’s legendary Wooster Street—is still at Pepe’s. The simple combination of
sweet, fat clams on a chewy, almost-burnt crust bonded with a touch of
mozzarella and a load of garlic always lives up to its billing.
Metro Pizza • Las Vegas, Nevada. Est. 1980:
Metro’s partners are pizza chameleons in the desert. They celebrate the genre
by playing no favorites, successfully replicating virtually every pizza style
across the country, from New York-style to New Orleans grilled shrimp toppings
to Chicago’s spinach-stuffed pies." From the book EVERYBODY LOVES PIZZA: The Deep Dish on America’s Favorite Food by Penny Pollack and Jeff Ruby• Emmis Books,ISBN 1-57860-218-1 Buy Here:
