    "Forkish aims to raise the bar on home pizza consumption by showing just how possible it is to bake extraordinary pizza to rival the artisanal output of any pizzeria. . . . Committed bakers will find plenty here to keep ovens hot and families' plates filled with honest versions of one of the nation's most beloved foods." - Booklist, "If there were ever to be a bible for all things pizza--and I mean all things --Ken Forkish has just written it. The detail that went into this book is so vast and exact that after reading it you will simply never have another question about any kind of pizza, from anywhere in the world." --Marc Vetri, author of  Mastering Pasta  and owner of Vetri "Ken Forkish is one of the world's great pie men, so it should be no surprise that The Elements of Pizza is an essential addition to the pizza canon. Forkish's formidable intellect and knowledge, combined with his can-do spirit, will turn any pizza lover into a pizza maker." --Ed Levine, founder and CEO of Serious Eats "If you're into pizza--and who isn't?-- The Elements of Pizza is your new holy book. There's something here for every cook, from weeknight-ready recipes to intricate explorations of dough chemistry. Ken Forkish is clearly a man obsessed, and lucky for us: much has been written about this globally beloved food, but this book has them all beat."  --Molly Wizenberg, author of Delancey and A Homemade Life "With The Elements of Pizza , Ken Forkish proves there is no right or wrong style of pizza. The right pizza is whatever you like--and whether you fancy Neapolitan, Roman, New York, or any other style, Ken guides you smoothly through the process. But this is not just a book about crusts and toppings: it is also full of interesting history and fun stories. In fact, this terrific book is itself one of the essential elements of making great pizza at home."  --Nancy Silverton, chef/co-owner of the Mozza Restaurant Group "The Elements of Pizza is a cookbook for anyone who loves pizza--particularly those with a deep appreciation for the crust. Ken's own passion for pizza took him to Italy and across the United States to uncover the techniques and ingredients that make incredible pizza. Starting from the ground up, this straightforward guide provides readers of all skill levels with techniques and tips to master a variety of pizza doughs, and culminates in delicious recipes that prove that great pizza can be made everywhere--especially at home."  --Nathan Myhrvold, coauthor of Modernist Cuisine and author of The Photography of Modernist Cuisine

      Outstanding customer service. Exceeded expectations. Unfortunately, package didn't arrive by expected date through no fault of the seller. It was presumably misplaced by the carrier during shipment. Seller proactively issued a full refund and said to "enjoy" the DVD if it is eventually delivered. Not expected, and certainly not necessary, given it wasn't their fault. A stellar vendor who goes the extra mile to ensure their customers are satisfied. Highly recommended!!

      Quick and easy purchase for a great price! Really appreciate the generosity and thoughtfulness. The books came in a bit damaged, so I messaged and suggested additional packaging next time. The seller quickly gave me a partial refund and will make changes in the future! Great seller :) thanks!

      The book cover didn't match the listing photo, which is a pet peeve of mine, and the book was just shipped in a bag with no additional protection, but the book was in the stated condition, not covered in inventory stickers (like some sellers do), and shipping was fast. Plus the book cover was actually better than the listing photo. Overall I'm happy, but I probably wouldn't purchase from this seller again just because I like to know what my book cover is going to look like.
