Refrigerated Dough





A review by Marty Martindale

This is a handy little cookbook for the busy worker with pizza lovers depending on them at the end of the day. It covers pizzas for family meals, party pizzas, what they call "Pizza in Disguise," and pizza as an appetizer, pizza as a dessert. The book pays special attention to the first-things-first, details for handling the dough, how to make the various crusts, topping tips and the importance of allowing, like roasts, the pizza to cool a few minutes for better flavor.
