Process Essay

     Making the perfect pizza may not seem like rocket science. The process to perfecting a pizza can be a little tricky at times though. You wouldn't want to present your paying customer with any old slopped together pizza would you? One should never have to change their clothes after eating a pizza because it was overloaded with sauce that ran down their chin onto their shirt. Or bite into a pizza just to have its entire contents slide off onto your pants. Follow the easy steps and with a little practice you too can make the perfect pizza. The first step is to make the dough. The following step is place the toppings. The last step is to cook the pizza.
     The first and trickiest part of making the perfect pizza is to make the dough. First clear off the counter top and sprinkle a decent amount of wondra all purpose flour onto the surface. Lay the dough into the wondra and sprinkle more on the top. I personally find that patting down on the dough while stretching it at the same time works best. Tossing the dough in the air only leads to disaster. Many people find that the dough rips when they stretch it too far. This is a big no no when perfecting a pizza. A pizza cannot under any circumstances have a hole! After much practice and lots of wasted dough a perfectly round pizza dough is created.
     The second step to a perfect pizza is to make it a pretty pizza by placing the toppings just right. First comes the sauce. I use the same scoop every time to get the right amount of sauce. Two scoops is just right. Any less you have a dry pizza, any more you have a messy pizza that drips down the chin. Cheese comes next. I carefully sprinkled the previously weighed bag of cheese all over the pizza, making sure that the whole pizza if covered. Toppings toppings toppings, so many choices. Whatever is chosen it needs too look good. I start placing the toppings around the outside and make my way to the middle, using lots of them as I go. Oregano is last but is most important for tasting pleasure. Choosing and placing the toppings is a very important part of the perfect pizza making process.
     The last step is to cook the pizza. I take the easy way out using the conveyor oven. I place the pizza onto a wire rack making sure that none of it is hanging over the side. It's very bad to have the pizza slopping over the sides. This leads to fire! Trust me I know. I didn't learn that lesson the first time, or the second time actually. The third times a charm though. I value my job and burning the store down is not an option. After fifteen minutes the pizza pops out the end of the oven, and it's ready to be boxed. A nice thank you note and smiley faces are always greatly appreciated by the customers. Cooking the pizza just right is a crucial part of creating the perfect pizza.
     After creating the perfect pizza I get a great feeling of satisfaction. A pretty pizza makes for a very happy customer. Happy customers always come back for another. Soon they are addicted to the pizza. They tell a friend who tries a pizza then tells their mother who tells her sister in law, and soon everyone is enjoying the perfect pizzas. I haven't always been a perfect pizza maker. I've had my fair share of holes, pizzas on the floor, uncooked pizzas, and pizzas without sauce. With the right amount of patience and practice you too can make the perfect pizza!
