King Arthur Baking Company's Book of Pizza: Recipes for Every Pizza Maker (A Cookbook)
About this product
AN INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
NAMED ONE OF THE BEST COOKBOOKS FOR SPRING 2026: Epicurious, Bon Appétit
From the team behind the #1 New York Times bestseller The King Arthur Baking Company Big Book of Bread, comes the definitive book dedicated to the key elements of making pizza in any home oven, countertop pizza oven, or backyard oven or grill.
The bakers at King Arthur Baking Company researched, tested—and tasted!—hundreds of pizzas and cooking methods to develop the most comprehensive book yet dedicated to the art and science of making pizza at home. Organized around twelve distinct styles—New York, New Haven, Chicago Tavern, Grandma, Neapolitan, and more— King Arthur Baking Company’s The Book of Pizza goes deep on every element of a great pie, from dough and sauce to the cheese and the bake.
Comprehensive yet accessible, the book is packed with innovative topping suggestions to match each crust style (don’t sleep on the Prosciutto and Hot Honey Neapolitan pie). But it also empowers bakers to mix and match sauces and toppings, allowing them to customize pizzas exactly to their liking. Rounding out the pizza recipes are four quintessential pizza night salads and an entire chapter of desserts, including Spumoni Semifreddo, an array of Italian-inspired cookies, and simple cakes, like Olive Oil Cake with Chocolate Ganache, to end pizza night with a bang.

Editor's Take
Reddit users describe the book as highly useful for serious home pizza makers, with one reviewer saying they highly recommend it even if they only use the dough recipes. A separate social post praised the recipes for working as written, noting excellent chew and a strong overall result, though with a wish for a bit more salt. The product pages and book listings suggest it is still early in its review cycle, so there are few broad customer-review patterns available yet. Amazon-style buyer feedback was not surfaced directly in the gathered results, but the available discussion leans positive and practical rather than hype-driven.
For video coverage, the search results surfaced two YouTube videos that appear relevant to this specific book: one titled as a cookbook club review of pizza, and another framed as an honest real-world review of King Arthur Baking Company's The Book of Pizza. No additional verified YouTube video IDs are included beyond those two found in the results.
