Description

Everyone loves pizza, right? Saver of parties, empty fridges and hangovers the world over – pizza has come to the rescue of the human race more times than is worth counting. So, if you can’t imagine your world without dough, cheese and tomato, then this is the book for you. All things pizza are here – from its history and family tree, to world famous pizzerias and even an exploration into the pizza variants we love to hate (hamburger crust pizza anyone?). The Pizza Pilgrims, Thom and James Elliot, have spent years researching the best pizza that the world has to offer, and producing their own pizzas across 16 restaurants in the UK (and counting). Alongside pizza maps of their favourite global pizza cities (so you can conduct your very own pizza pilgrimage) the book is also packed with over 30 recipes to make sure you finally delete your local takeaway from speed dial 1. From an NY slice, to true Neapolitan pizza made in a frying pan, Pizza offers classic and new creations, including guest chefs' signature takes, and the Pilgrims' very own Nutella pizza ring! Oven fresh and packed with interviews, pizza facts, movie scenes, world records and even pizza tattoos, Pizza is illustrated with all manner of pie-based fun and written with a hearty dose of humour. The perfect companion for the pizza lover in your life. Fact. Read more

  • A really cool book dealing with just pizza.
Format: Hardcover
This was for my granddaughter who is a culinary arts student. She loved the book and thought the cover was so smart why didn’t someone think of it sooner. It covers every pizza under the sun.

My son gave me this book for Christmas and I loved reading the whole thing. The brothers and quirky, fun & informative We've tried 4 pizza recipes and 1 dipping sauce recipe so far. All were delicious. The recipes are by weight, so you either need a scale or search online for approximate US measurements. ... show more

  • A cookbook that want to be a coffee table book
Format: Hardcover
From faux pizza box cover to cover, this book is fun to flip thru. The stories are well composed and the pictures vibrant. The recipes are legit. If this book could get a One Bite score, it would be an 8.8.

  • Part History Book, Part Travel Guide, Part Cookbook. 100% greatness!
Format: Hardcover
This is a really fun book, especially if you like pizza. It’s a great book on pizza authority, especially in the United States. I’m from Chicago and they pretty much cover all our great hits.

  • Is the Dough for this Book Worth It?
Format: Hardcover
Owning several hundred cookbooks, and around a dozen exclusively devoted to pizza, it’s appearing to me that there’s a trend in chefs’ having opened some restaurants needing to write a cookbook, or rather a travelogue, on how the chefs’ journeys. In some cases, scores of photos of basil, tomatoes, dough, restaurants, crusts, cars, people met along the way, and in this case, innumerable photos of the authors eating pizza, appear mandatory. Of the 268 pages in this book, the first actual recipe doesn’t appear until page 100. They continue for 53 pages, when we dive into pizza box art, other things you can eat with pizza, and a variety of cities’ pizza restaurants. But wait! There’s more! On page 259 there’s a Chicago deep dish recipe. Apparently there are many pizza enthusiasts among us interested in “how we got to be us” books, replete with photos and stories of the journey. All well and good: this is your book. For those of us with a bit of pizza background, including having on hand Tony Gemignani’s “Pizza Bible,” there’s really nothing new here, except a lovely tribute to Tony, and some curious dough variations, for example, the Nutella Ring. I hand it to the authors for their sense of humor and wish to memorialize their journey in sharing so many pictures of their friends and themselves making and eating pizza, but we could have used far more substance and far less extraneous items (which is the point of a Neapolitan pizza: less is better, is it not)? One more thing. If the authors are individually making hundreds and thousands of pizzas a day among their restaurants by hand without mixers as outlined on page 100, I do give them a bronze star for the amazing labor that goes into that. ... show more
