Today's modern world makes all kinds of exotic foods available to us, but don’t think that "exotic" means "difficult to prepare." This episode shows that even food that comes from as far away as Europe can be quick and easy. The featured item, called "pizza" (and pronounced "PEET-zuh") came from the frozen section of a specialty grocer, but since this episode was produced two years ago, it is now available nearly everywhere.
If you're not familiar with pizza, it has a crust and resembles a pie, but it's made with tomatoes, onions, mushrooms, and cheese.
Unlike many other baked goods, pizza doesn't need to be defrosted—it goes right from freezer to oven. After removing the elegant and thorough European wrapping, you can bake it directly on the oven rack, to make a delicious meal that doesn't make any dishes dirty!
Here's a tip: baking without a rack can make a mess in the oven. If you rent, you can just move before it gets too bad, and then it's the landlord's problem!
