Video Description

Join Lan Lam and Dan Souza as they make their at-home version of Neapolitan pizza. Lan introduces a technique called tangzhong, which allows well-hydrated dough to bake longer in a conventional oven. The two show you how to shape, stretch, and add toppings (traditional Neapolitan and Dan's favorites) to the dough. Plus, they offer insights on pizza steels and stones, why you need more than one pizza peel, and how to launch your pizza into and out of the oven with ease.
