Hands-on Pizza Workshop with Matthew White & Anthony DeCaria
September 16, 2023 @ 11:00 am - 1:00 pm
$120.00Event Navigation
There’s nothing like home-made pizza and the best part is how surprisingly easy it is to make. Matthew White & Anthony DeCaria join forces in this class to share their complimentary takes on the ultimate Italian street food. Matthew will share his favorite – sourdough pizza – which he learned from the Sourdough Goddess (and James Beard Award Winner) Sarah Owens. Anthony calls on his Italian background and makes his dough using the quick technique of beer for a beautiful rise. Both versions create a wonderful crust.
After showing how to make these two doughs Anthony will make a homemade pizza sauce, we’ll pop both in the oven and will sample both versions and discuss. Then we’ll begin the hands-on session where each student will roll out their individual pizzas choosing from various toppings to make their perfect pie.
Menu to include:
• Classic Pizza Margarita
• Three-Cheese “White” Pizza
• Sausage Pizza with Red Onion
• Salad to accompany
We’ll pop your hand-made pizzas in the oven onto pizza stones and you’ll eat the fruits of your labors accompanied by a delicious salad made by Anthony. The take-away from this workshop is the demystification of making hand-made pizza at home, TWO great recipes, some hands-on experience and sourdough starter. Join us and let’s make some pies!
This Hands-On Workshop is limited to ten people and includes lunch.
