Detroit Style Pizza from Scratch

Pizza from scratch may seem like a daunting task, but it's not as hard as you think! Detroit-Style Pizza is one of the best; thick, crispy, cheesy, and totally different from your typical slice. In this class, we’ll break down what makes it special and show you how to make it at home without overcomplicating things.

You’ll start by mixing your own pizza dough, learning what to look for in a good dough and how to handle a wetter style that bakes up light and fluffy inside with a crispy, caramelized edge.

While the dough is rising, we’ll shift gears and make the Best Ranch Dressing you've ever had for dipping your pizza or making a salad (incredible for wings too). A Chopped Romaine Salad starts the meal, topped with ranch, cherry tomatoes, red onion, cucumber, and oregano.

Then you'll make a Detroit-Style Pizza. We've put together some topping combos or you can mix and match to make your own...

Motor City Classic: Mozz, Pepperoni, Calabrian Chili Honey
Greektown Pie: Sausage, Kalamata, Banana Peppers, Red Onion, Feta
The Big Green: Artichoke, Pesto, Castelvetrano Olives, Goat Cheese
