And Domino's thinks its great!
What to Do

Atkins dieters will order a hamburger and get rid of the top bun. Hey, pizza
already comes without a top layer of carbs, but if you really want a
low-carb pizza, you're out of luck, right? Wrong. The first thing we did was
to put in a call to Tom "The Dough Doctor" Lehmann with the American
Institute of Baking. He responded like the true professional he is and has
provided us with a low-carb recipe, which can be found on page 40 in part
three of this series. If you don't want to make your own, there are other
solutions out there.

Low Carb Creations has just recently stepped up to the plate and started
offering a frozen, pre-formed low carb dough, pre-cheesed pizzas and a
low-carb dough mix. With all of the hype and buzz about this low-carb thing,
I had to try this out myself. PMQ called Laura with Low Carb Creations and
asked if they could send some samples for us to try out. A few days later,
we received a cold-pack box and called a local pizzeria to see if we could
commandeer their kitchen to do some tests. We made two of the pre-made
cheese pizzas and two pizzas with various Atkins-friendly toppings, meaning
lots of meats and cheese, and ran them through the conveyor ovens.

I first want to start by saying, as editor, I try to keep from pushing any
specific company in our editorial. I think it damages our credibility, so I
try to keep the mention of companies to a minimum unless it involves some
informative aspect to the article. This company does. Now I admit, I am not
on any diet. I only weigh about a buck sixty. Sitting behind this desk and
eating pizza is starting to make me reconsider, but I wanted to try this
low-carb crust to see how it compared to regular crust. Naturally, it
doesn't have the full flavor of regular dough, but I will say, if I were on
a diet, I wouldn't have any problems eating it, especially if pizza had been
off of my list for any length of time.

Local Domino's Pizza franchisee Diane Barrentine tasted the product and
said, "I definitely think this is a product that is ready to go to market.
All that is needed is a marketing strategy to let people know about it." Two
other testers who have been on the Atkins diet for a while said, "This is
great. I haven't been able to eat anything but the toppings off of the pizza
for so long, this is a blessing." Indeed. Here is your opportunity.

If you offer bread with the meal, why not cut some of your costs and rather
than automatically bring bread, have a sever offer bread. Also, let
customers know that wings are Atkins friendly, with the exception of those
with honey in the seasoning, like honey barbecue.

I guess I got confused because it says there is a low-carb recipe
which can be found on page 40 in part three of the series.

Never mind, I found it at:
http://www.pmq.com/mag/2003november_...arbdough.shtml

It's not really a recipe for pizza dough, but it is an interesting
discussion on how to build a reduced carb flour substitute. The funny
thing is, I got the impression that Tom "The Dough Doctor" Lehmann has
not ever actually made this kind of dough.
