Random Tip

If you have a cast-iron pan (ours is a grill pan), you know that the handle can get hot as well. This may be common sense, but I thought it was genious when I first did it! I put an oven mit or a pot-holder that goes on your hand over the handle once I get it out. That way I’ll never burn my hand.

Please excuse the nasty dirty pot-holder in the picture!

    My friend and I took that same pizza class with Susan Miller in April. She is so sweet and such a great teacher. So much fun. We didn’t want the class to end. Hoping to do another class at KAF this winter. Love your blog!

    I guess I usually cook my veggies before putting them on pizza, but I never thought that you had to! VERY good to know. Also, I need to go smell my whole wheat flour ASAP. Great tips 🙂

    This is a great recap. I feel like I learned more last weekend than I have in awhile. . . or maybe I was just more interested in baking than most other things! 🙂
