Make homemade pizza that exceeds your wildest expectations-yet couldnt be simpler-with Jim Laheys groundbreaking no-knead dough and inventive toppings.Jim Lahey, the baking genius behind New York Citys celebrated Sullivan Street Bakery and Co. pizza restaurant, has developed a brilliant recipe that requires no kneading and produces an irresistible crust in any home oven-gas or electric-in fewer than five minutes. The secret to incredible pizza is a superb crust-one that is crisp yet chewy, and slightly charred around the edges. My Pizza shares this revolutionary technique and the creative pies that put Co. on the map, as well as recipes for salads, soups, and desserts to make a meal complete.The pizzas in this book arent your usual, run-of-the-mill pies. In fact, Jims unique topping pairings-such as Corn and Tomato, Coppa and Fennel, and Potato and Leek-reinvigorate this American favorite. His whimsy is apparent in his Pepperoni Pie, which doesnt include the cured meat we have all come to expect; instead, riffing on pepperoni as the Italian plural for pepper, Jim offers a pie with red pepper puree, ground lamb, and pecorino cheese. To round out dinner, My Pizza also has recipes for starters and side salads-such as Cannellini Bean Toast, Pea Soup, and Bibb and Roasted Squash Salad-and sweet finishes, from Milk Chocolate Sundae to Banoffee Pie.With gorgeous color photographs and helpful tips on equipment and techniques, My Pizza unlocks the secrets of great, easy pizza for home cooks everywhere.
