A pizza quest for a pizza freak.

The path to being a self described "foodie" started with baking bread.  I've been following master baker Peter Reinhart for the past few years.  He started a bakery in Santa Rosa, California in the early 90's when artisan baking was completely unheard of in the US.  His little bakery changed his life and he eventually became an culinary instructor at Johnson & Wales University.  After years of baking bread, Peter became obsessed with pizza and stopped teaching to go on a quest to find the perfect pizza.

That quest started with a world tour and a book called American Pie.  From that book Peter continued to meet new people in the pizza world and expand his pizza baking knowledge.  Pizza Quest was created to help home pizzaioli as well as inspire new home bakers' to try baking their own pizza.  Pizza Quest has only been active for a week but it already has the support of Bel Gioioso cheese company and Forno Bravo pizza ovens.  Pizza Quest contributors include master pizzaioli Tony Gemignani who owns one of the top ten pizzerias in the US.

If you can't already tell, I'm very excited about this website and I can't wait to watch it grow.
