WOOD FIRED NEWSLETTER

Hello Forno Bravo Family,

We are thankful for you and your presence and participation in our wood fired community. 2020 has proven strongly that in the craziness of life, the things that matter most are the people in our lives. Our family and friends are an enduring treasure that form us, support us, and help us to shine! As we go into 2021, let us not forget the lessons we have learned, and the wisdom we can carry with us into the future. So, let’s light the fire, raise a glass, and give thanks in the coming weeks and months for all we have and all we’ve been given.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Meet Mark and Jenny Bello of Pizza School NYC on Pizza Talk with Peter Reinhart

Pizza School NYC launched 10 years ago as a place for everyday people to learn the art and craft of making a good pizza in their own home kitchens. 50,000+ students later, their dream continues! Mark and Jenny Bello own and operate the school, in both its physical and virtual versions. They fill a number of roles – lead instructors, technical support, head dreamers, recipe developers, outreach coordinators, and master encouragers of their students and clients! Recently, the energetic Peter Reinhart interviewed the Bellos on Pizza Talk. They discussed the school and business, recent pivots during COVID, their future Pizza Retreat Center project, and even demonstrated how to make a creative pizza known as “The Hot Honion!” Click below to enjoy the interview and demo, and learn more about their weekly classes and corporate events.

Pizza School NYC’s Pizza Crust Stuffing

If you love pizza, and you love Thanksgiving, Mark and Jenny Bello of Pizza School NYC have concocted a way to combine the two. Their recipe puts a new twist on a classic stuffing combination. By first baking pizza dough with onions for the bread portion, you get a perfect flavor infusion built into the base of the stuffing mix. It really takes it up a notch. Add in sausage, sage, and a broth of your choice, and you are in for a moist stuffing side dish that will accent any meal!
