Pizza is one of the best and easiest go-to comfort foods, but we know there's a bit of hesitation in trying to make it at home. Don't let pizza stretch you out!

corn meal is more authentic, but I've started putting my pies on parchment paper, trimming it once the dough is on it. Slides right off, crisp crust, no grit on the bottom of my pies.

This was really helpful! One question - how long did you let the pizza dough rest before shaping? Thanks!

Great video, Amanda! I love the steering wheel technique. We had pizza on the grill last night - no oven. It was delicious!

Great video Amanda. I always used to roll my dough out. This is so much easier. Thanks for sharing!

Nice video! Say, I have meant to ask this for ages: what is the music you use in the Kitchen Confidence videos? It's charming, just right!
