The man who wrote the book on bread calls the Queen City “home.”

After running his own bakery, instructing thousands of students and authoring 12 books, including the James Beard Award and IACP award-winning book, The Bread Baker’s Apprentice, it’s safe to say, that Peter Reinhart, chef on assignment at Johnson & Wales University, knows his bread.

But, he didn’t stop there. He’s one of the world’s foremost authorities on pizza, too. Creator and host of the Pizza Quest webseries and author of American Pie: My Search for the Perfect Pizza, Chef Reinhart is always on the hunt for the next big thing in pizza. And, he thinks he’s found it.

Next week, The Biscuit will feature an interview with Chef Rinehart about the process of diving into Detroit-style pan pizzas and even share some recipes. Tomorrow, you can meet Chef Reinhart and buy a copy of his book at the monthly meeting of CreativeMornings/Charlotte/ But, today, you can enter for a chance to win a signed copy of his new book, Perfect Pan Pizza from Ten Speed Press.
