Learning How to Make Neapolitan Pizza from Keste's Roberto Caporuscio
Roberto Caporuscio, one of the partners-pizzaiolos at Kesté Pizza & Vino in Manhattan's Greenwich Village, led a Neapolitan pizza-making class last night. Before he began punching dough balls and spreading tomato sauce, he went over the basics. Naples is a couple hours south of Rome, and "the pizza from there is not better, it's just different." He gave us a little history on the famous Naples-originating Margherita pizza, which we were about to bake in the Kesté oven cranked up to 950°F. A baker named Rafaele Esposito whipped up the first pizza Margherita in 1889 to welcome the Queen...Jim Lahey's No-Knead Pizza Dough Recipe
Jim Lahey playing with his dough at Co. If the lines at Co. remain at WTF? status, go home and make your own no-knead pizza dough with Jim Lahey's recipe. There's nothing sneaky about his approach: just the expected yeast, salt, flour, and water. Back in December, we told you about a no-knead dough recipe from Chef John of the blog Food Wishes. His version is slightly busier than Lahey's, with additional ingredients like sugar, olive oil, wheat flour, and cornmeal....Ramen-Based Pizza Crust
Photograph courtesy of Michele Humes This past weekend, there was a Ramen-Off contest in Brooklyn at the Brooklyn Kitchen. Contestants in the Ramen-Off had to repurpose this stuff of cheap meals, with an eye toward creativity and deliciousness. The ramen dish above, made by Karol Lu, uses the noodles as pizza crust. As she told the folks at the Brooklyn Kitchen: I wanted to make something that was the complete opposite of what you think of when you hear the word ramen. I also wanted the dish to be simple, inviting, and something that everyone likes. To me, this...Daring Bakers Pizza Dough Challenge
Left: Sara's Daring Bakers entry from The Kitchen Pantry. Right: Chara of Food Life tosses dough. Daring Bakers is sort of an online happening. Hundreds and hundreds of bloggers participate. Each month, one blogger or a group of bloggers "hosts" a recipe and acts as a hub for the participants. Then, all the bakers who fancy themselves daring make the recipe, tweaking it, adding their own spin and personality, etc. They then post their results on the specified due date. This month's challenge was pizza. Awesome. It was hosted by Rosa's Yummy Yums. This past Wednesday was the turn-in...Pizza Braid Recipe

Mark Bittman (aka "The Minimalist") suggests a novel way of preparing pizza in today's New York Times: pan-frying it. Take pizza dough and shape it—small disks are best—then fry it in enough olive oil to crisp the bottom. Then flip it.If the toppings are hot (as, for example, tomato sauce might be) or the quantities small (a bit of grated cheese, rather than a pile), all you need to do from this point is drop them on top, then brown the bottom of the second side. For more heavily topped pizzas, Mr. Bittman says you'll have to put a lid...Jeff Varasano's Famous Pizza Recipe
