I had never heard of Chris Bianco until I read Peter Reinhart's American Pie, My Search for the Perfect Pizza. Peter waxed poetic about Pizza Rosa (pistachio pizza ) and called Bianco's pizzaria one of the best in America. So when I saw Chris Bianco had written a cookbook, I had to have it. Yes, there are only a few pizza recipes in the book however he spends some time on small plates which is unusual and the desserts are not overly sweet. He weaves in pictures and stories from his parents and grandparents which I found similar to my own heritage and can so appreciate that the knowledge hand down is valuable and precious. I see some of the reviewers don't like his pizza dough. I myself am a devote of Peter Reinhart's Neopolitan crust recipe and have not tried Chris's dough. But how many people would make a pizza with pistachios and a little red onion - it is delicious. For those without a pizza oven, Chris covers alternatives and encourages experimentation with all his recipes. Lastly, he has a recipe in here for a flat crepe/pancake made out of chickpea flour and sage leaves. I made it in my pizza oven and loved it.-Alex
Chris Bianco is a GD hero. He is one of the most authentic chefs in this country of great chefs and he has single handedly set the bar of excellence in Phoenix. His food is pure to its core. Those who may say "not a lot of pizza in a pizza book.." must have skipped over the beautiful narrative that tells the story of Pizzeria Bianco, the dedication to the ingredients, and the people that produce, farm, and grow them; they are the real stars in this book. If you're looking for a bunch of mumbo jumbo to pile on top of pizza crust, jump on Pinterest.. I'm sure there's plenty of crap there for you.-Ethan Kawasaki
I'm not sure what I expected as I was looking for a good Italian food book and picked up this one. This was exactly what I needed. Great recipes, low sugar - the pizza dough has no sugar, just flour yeast, and slat - so a very nice tasty dough. Also in the book there are lots of vegatable recipes - I especially like the roasted veg ones. I you want a book you can follow every day for producing great meals and snacks this one is for me. Pizzas, Salads, Sandwiches, Pasta, Small Snacks, and Puddings - its all here. This book is written by a guy who runs a restaurant out in Arizona so its pretty much the menu - so all tried and tested on paying customers - there;'s not a duff recipe in here. This would be a great book to match up with a diet as the food is not very sweet or oily - just do a portion control diet. -Chris Downing
