Pizza Quest with Peter Reinhart, with Guest Author of “Rottenkid,” Brigit Binns

Welcome back to Pizza Quest! Brigit Binns first appeared on Pizza Quest a few years ago when we filmed some cooking segments with her and her husband, actor Casey Biggs, at the Forno Bravo Wood-Fired Oven Expo in Salinas, California in 2017 (see us in action here at: https://www.fornobravo.com/pizzaquest/new-webisode-brigit-binns-cooking-fire/

Brigit and Casey have also been operating a wonderful retreat and event center in California’s Central Coast Wine Country called, Refugio, but she’s far too prolific for settling into the so-called good life, and so keeps writing fabulous cook books for Williams-Sonoma and others, as well as, more recently, a memoir called Rottenkid, about growing up in (and surviving) a neurotically crazy Hollywood family (the title says it all). In this delightfully candid conversation, she shares it all with us, including some good, old-fashioned Hollywood gossip – hey, you can’t make up this stuff!

Vision Statement

Pizza Quest is a site dedicated to the exploration of artisanship in all forms, wherever we find it, but especially through the literal and metaphorical image of pizza. As we share our own quest for the perfect pizza we invite all of you to join us and share your journeys too. We have discovered that you never know what engaging roads and side paths will reveal themselves on this quest, but we do know that there are many kindred spirits out there, passionate artisans, doing all sorts of amazing things. These are the stories we want to discover, and we invite you to jump on the proverbial bus and join us on this, our never ending pizza quest.
