Title: Awesome!
Review: I just got this today, and haven’t made anything yet, but just looking at it, this looks great. It’s super thick, with great photos of every recipe. I bought this book and the Essential Wood-Fired Pizza Cookbook. This one looks like it blows the other out of the water. If you’re on the fence, pick it up!

Title: Very good...but...
Review: Glad to have this book for my pizza book collection. Pros: Numerous dough recipes in Grams and Ounces. If you are still measuring your flour in cups, you are not a serious pizza maker. It has many pizza and focaccia-style pizzas too and others. There are a lot of topping options . Many colored photos. History section and info on the many styles of pizza , regional and national differences is appreciated. Cons: the actual making of the dough is explained on the minimal side, in my opinion. This is not the only pizza book to instruct to mix on first/low speed for x amount of minutes and then at medium or 2nd speed for x amount of minutes. I find this useless since mixer speeds can and do vary by manufacturer. I would have liked to have read and seen ( with photos) what the dough should feel and look like during the mixing stages. The index is quite long, over 20 pages and not user-friendly. Far too many entries in a dizzying layout where one has difficulty knowing where one category starts and the sub-category begins. But I want to end as I started.... I would recommend this book for anyone who loves to make pizza beginner or veteran It as a lovely layout with 3 ribbons to mark pages. For more detailed instructions I would recommend: The Pizza Bible, Mastering Pizza and The Elements of Pizza.

Title: THIS IS IT!
Review: I bought several Pizza books from Amazon in the past two years or so and returned most of them or put the rest on the shelf never to be used.Most pizza-making books are about toppings: I don’t need that, as, at my age, I have a clear idea of what I like on my pizza.Moreover, most pizza-making books are by Americans who (bless their heart) are in love with Italy and Italian food, even went to live there for a while and believed what the locals told them about their pizza secrets… but, alas, will always fall so short of the original that they are not worth considering.I was looking for recipes for a really good pizza dough AND most of all for focacce, schiacciate and pizza bianca alla romana (la pizza a taglio del fornaio). I am Italian, born and raised where this author was born and raised—we know what we are talking about.When I found this book there wasn’t a single review on Amazon! I was puzzled but took the plunge.FIRST: THIS BOOK IS AN AESTHETIC MASTERPIECE. You want this book, if anything, as a coffee-table book. It is magnificent! Everything about it is perfect: the print quality, paper quality, photography, the several ribbons (not just one!) to bookmark where you’re at, the information about regional variants and histories, the “I wont’ bore you with my life stories”-quality of the writing… everything! Buy it just to have it, if you don’t need to actually make pizza!SECOND: The doughs come out perfectly delicious. And that’s pretty much all one needs to know.Yes, I caught a couple of incongruities regarding measurements: i.e., the same recipe for a starter, for example, had different measurements on two different pages… Editorial mishaps. Each time I make a recipe from this book, I will simply double check by asking Alexa for the equivalent grams/ounces weights and figure it out. Still, absolutely worth it!Brava Barbara Caracciolo! Caracciolo is a noble name: I guess this makes the author the true Queen of the genre! ;)(If my photos look gross to you, it is because of my photography and crappy presentation—despite being a good cook, I am neither a caterer or a chef and don’t know the first thing about food presentation. The taste is amazing, but I can’t reproduce that for you!)

Review: An amazing pizza cookbook! If you are a real fan of pizza and you want to master it at home this is the book to go! Nice presentation of the history, very detailed description of the techniques, the ingredients and useful tips to succeed at home. I tried the pizza dough and it was exceptional!!! Truly recommend this book. One remark it would be only regarding the paper quality (I would prefer it shiny and harder )
