What"s Good Dough?

What"s Good Dough

I quit my job for pizza. Should you? My name is Eidref Laxa and I am a Mobile Caterer, Ooni Ambassador, and Pan Pizza Champion. Pizza changed my life. I"m guessing that if you"re here, it"s already changed yours. I started this podcast to learn about pizza and starting a pizzeria. I’m not ready to open a brick and mortar just yet, but I’m still obsessed with learning from pizza operators. Because one day, I just might. I"m just busy doing other things first.

110% With Kaleigh Ann aka The Pizza Slut

What"s Good Dough? ·

2020/11/13

Prior to the start of our conversation, I found out Kaleigh puts a 110% into everything she does. She's eaten at the best pizza joints from sea to shining sea and has accumulated a wealth of knowledge by chopping it up with amazing pizzaiolas and pizzaiolos and tasting their food. Those insights, along with a positive vibe, is why she's killing it in her own pizza pop up. One day I want to be like Kaleigh Ann.

Wow! I am truly impressed with how this episode turned out! So many great pieces of information in this show. We talk about dough management, ovens, sourdough (and why she doesn't use it).

If you’ve listened to the podcast, you’ve probably seen that I have a pretty positive outlook on pizza and life. And while Frederico, Tony’s Gemingnai’s mentee, also has a very positive outlook, he is also a realist. For that, I put a LOT of value in this episode. Frederico explains how the pizza life is not as glamorous as the way it looks on TV or Instagram. To be a pizza business owner, you must truly love what you do. You have to love the process, not just the accolades. #whatsgooddough #pizza
