In this small (6 – 8 people), hands-on class you’ll learn how to make classic New York style pizza. You’ll make the dough from scratch, hand toss it, and top it with New York style sauce and cheese. You will make a large pie which has a medium-thin crust and is crispy on the outside, slightly chewy on the inside, and yet is soft and pliable enough to be folded in half. You’ll make classics – like Cheese pizza (” a plain slice”), Pepperoni, Sausage, or create your own masterpiece from a variety of toppings to choose from.
