In this class you’ll learn how to make pizza from scratch, from choosing the best flours to selecting the perfect topping combinations to mastering the secrets to a crisp, bubbly crust. We will make one of Italy's well known pizzas, Pizza Margherita with extra toppings provided. It is a typical Neapolitan pizza, made with tomatoes, mozzarella, fresh basil, salt and extra-virgin olive oil. You will also learn a little history of one of the worlds favorite dishes.
Did you know that the word pizza is believed to be from an Old Italian word meaning "a point," which in turn became the Italian word "pizzicare," which means "to pinch" or "pluck." Enough of all that, lets "Mangia Mangia".
No experience is required! We provide all the equipment and ingredients, which are easy to find at local markets if you don’t already have them in your home kitchen. Our events are casual and meant to be fun and instructive, not hardcore.
This class is designed to be just as fun for the cooking enthusiast who wants to be a part of every step as it is for the first-timer who’s happier observing and assisting (or taste testing). The instructor will even share recipes with you to make your pizza gluten free and vegan friendly. If you're lucky, he might even toss a pizza.
