America's Test Kitchen (2001)

Season 11: Episode 19

Chicago-Style Deep-Dish Pizza Deep-dish pizza was born in Chicago, where it boasts a distinctively rich, flaky, biscuit-like crust. The problem? No pizzeria in Chicago would tell us how to make it. Mediterranean Chopped Salad We wanted complementary flavors and textures in every bite—not a random collection of bland, watery produce from the crisper drawer.
