The Conversation

The Restaurant Guys hear a revolutionary idea from Jim Lahey of how to make not only bread, but pizza dough with his no-knead method. Jim discusses the obstacles many folks face while baking at home and his suggestions to overcome them so you, too, can make great pizza!

The Inside Track

The Guys hear what Jim really thinks about a typical pizza.

“Most of the dough and our notion of pizza that's out there is really bad. Industrialized. Hopeless. Sad. You could say the pizza lacks self-esteem.

The Pizza Mafia is probably planning a hit on me,” Jim Lahey on The Restaurant Guys Podcast 2012
