Thoughts on Pizza Styles

There are two styles in this book: pizza cooked on a stone and pizza cooked in a pan. Some will say, “Grandma pizza is this many inches tall,” or “Detroit-style pizza must be made in this pan.” To them I say: It’s personal preference. There’s no Official Pizza Governing Body. But mostly pizza is round with a raised crust and a flat area covered with toppings—tomato sauce and cheese. That’s pizza.
