PizzaExpress From Italy With Love: 100 Favourite Recipes to Make at Home

Product Information

The book has a strong focus on quality ingredients, mostly of Italian origin, and it’s this route that Jim takes in his recipes for world-class pies. Sometimes the instructions can be a bit thin, which tilts it towards a book for serious pizza makers and restaurateurs. Over time I have learned to simplify my recipe with the same results ( my recipe), but still follow the basic principles. The famous recipe is essentially a no-knead dough, where the ingredients are mixed in a bowl and left to naturally bond and ferment overnight. I knew of Falco as he is fairly well known online, especially from his YouTube pizza dough recipe with The New York Times – so was excited to read his book.

We have the perfect meal deals for you so you can enjoy restaurant favourites from the comfort of your own home. I would also add that Ken Forkish’s Elements of Pizza include free videos of him demonstrating different techniques. The pizza recipes are split into 3 sections of dough – thin and crispy, “Neapolitan-ish”, and pan pizza.This is my favorite pizza book as it makes a number of amazing pizza doughs, all with clear instructions and no unnecessary steps. The final section is about “toasts, soups and salads” which has some more interesting suggestions to feed your guests while they wait for their pizza.

This is a newer book, first published in 2020, but I thought it was a great addition to my collection. This pizza promises to be a family crowd-pleaser, and could even trick your brain into thinking you’ve gone out for dinner.Now the magic and versatility of the popular restaurants can be recreated at home with PizzaExpress: From Italy with Love. A great thing about this book is that Marc offers different recipes and instructions for cooking in different ovens. Looking for a treat after a long week or craving something special to enjoy whilst bingeing the latest TV series?

At around a quarter of the book, I couldn’t help but feel this was added to pad out the page number. This book is definitely a classic due to the author Jim Lahey popularising an easy, no-fuss dough recipe.PizzaExpress: From Italy with Love embodies those values, and lovingly brings his favourite recipes into your home. It’s got a lot of content in it, which comes from the two brother’s journey of setting up a number of pizza restaurants in London after touring around Italy. It has chapters on the history, all the different styles, the ingredients, methods, and equipment, all before going into the dough recipes and the actual pizza topping recipes themselves. By using the Web site, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agreed to be bound by the Terms and Conditions.

Alongside 68 pizza recipes, many of which are ready in minutes, there are sumptuous salads, decadent desserts, and delicious dressings and sauces that create a meal for every occasion. With Jim’s obvious knowledge as a bread baker, I think it would have been better to include some more details on dough and why his method is a winner across the globe.

Featuring exclusive recipes for perennial favourites including dough balls, Margherita and Sloppy Giuseppe as well as spicy, seafood, vegan and veggie pizzas, PizzaExpress: From Italy with Love caters to every mood and palette. Our Cook At Home range is perfect for any at home occasion, whether it's a family evening in, date night, or a catch up with friends. And now Pizza Express has revealed the exact recipe of its much-loved Margherita pizza, so you can recreate that iconic taste without leaving your house. I own a small library of pizza and bread books (11 at my last count) so I’ve put together a shortlist of my favorite ones here. I see the “Jim Lahey no-knead” method pop up all the time across internet forums and comments – I think people just love its simplicity.
