New York Pizza: the Iconic Slice, with Wylie Dufresne

While we love all styles of pizza, there’s a special place in our hearts for New York pizza — and not just because David lives in its home city!   New York pizza is one of the most iconic dishes in America, and this episode shines a spotlight on the unique history and culture behind each slice. And as a special treat, we have one of the most notable people making New York pizza today on the show: the legendary chef Wylie Dufresne. Wylie dishes on the secrets behind his incredible pizza, then Jessica and David are joined by The Book of Pizza co-author Martin Philip to dig into your listener questions and help you make this style of pizza at home. To close out the show, Jessica shares a Jess-opinion on a popular pizza side, and they finish up with the recipes they’re baking this week.   Recipes and other links from this episode:  Grab a copy of our new cookbook, The Book of Pizza  Find our New York-Style Pizza recipe   Try Wylie’s pizza at Stretch in New York City   Learn more about our Grains for Good program   For the crispiest pizza crust, bake with a pizza steel  Watch Martin teach you how to make New American pizza   To really nail your pies, take our New York Pizza On Demand Class, hosted by Martin    What David’s baking this week: Rossa Pizza from The Book of Pizza   What Jessica’s baking this week: Everyday Olive Oil Cake  Record your question for our Ask the Bakers segment here!
