What makes a great-tasting pizza every time?What makes a great

pizza? Tradition. The oldways still work, and allgood cooking starts withthe basics.

Quality food starts withthe ingredients. Only thefinest ingredients shouldbe used, starting from thebottom up, to ensure sat-isfied customers whocome back time after timefor the best pizza around.

The first ingredient forany pizza is dough. Itshould be made with flourthat is high gluten, thehighest quality flour,Amber Durham wheat —the finest of all wheats,cane sugar and only thebest yeast. It must bemade fresh, never frozen.The dough should then bethrice raised, which takes36 hours. This ensures thebest dough possible.

Pear tomato puree isthe main ingredient forthe next layer, the sauce.Pear tomatoes are one ofthe best on the market be-cause they contain themaximum of tomatosolids. The best of domes-tic and imported spiceswould then be blended tocreate a uniquely superbsauce with a savory taste.

In Wisconsin, cheese is avery important ingredientfor pizza. All the cheeseused should be 100% Wis-consin full cream moz-

zarella, without one gramof artificial cheese, for thefullest flavor.

A superb pizza alsocontains the best meat.The sausage should be100% meat, 90% leanwhole hog, blended withthe finest spices for adelectable taste sure toplease even the most dis-criminating of palates.

The pepperoni shouldalso be 100% meat, 90%lean, aged to perfection toenhance the flavor, sureto please all pepperonilovers.

Other toppings avail-able must also be highquality. Only the bestonions should be used, in-cluding Vadalia, WallaWalla, Texas 10/15, andsweet red Bermudaonions. These create amouthwatering additionto any pizza.

Green peppers must bemixed slightly with thesweetest red bell peppersfor an appetizing way toliven up a pizza.

California black olivesalso add a savory taste.

For a wild appetite,sweet succulent pineap-ple, crispy vitamin-richbroccoli, tender flaky solidwhite albacore, or lusciousshrimp could be added.

At Alexander’s Pizza,these basics have createda tradition of quality food,

which has made therestaurant the most popu-lar pizza stop for residentsand vacationers alike.

In addition, when allthe ingredients are beingartfully combined, nobodywants to think of a dirtykitchen or unsanitaryconditions. But never fear,for Alexander’s Pizza hasthe cleanest kitchen you’llfind. In fact, it would evenbe clean enough to per-form surgery.

Of course, an aestheti-cally pleasing environ-ment is also needed toenjoy the full pleasure ofeating delicious pizza.Alexander’s Pizza offers aclean, relaxing environ-ment with friendly serviceand a casual atmosphere.

Games and pool arealso available to entertainthe kids while the food isbeing prepared to order.

If you love art shows,music, good food, refreshinglibations and the atmo-sphere of a North Woodsfestival, then the place tobe Saturday, July 21, is atArtarama’s River Walk ArtShow in Eagle River.

For the 40th time, Ar-tarama is about to happen.Since its small beginning in1972, Artarama has grownin size, popularity and rep-utation.

“The purpose of thisshow is twofold,” said BarbZy how ski, Artarama com-mittee member. “It is orga-nized to bring a high-quali-ty art show to Eagle River,along with the commercethat is a result of many vis-itors being drawn to the

area. But more important-ly, it is still organized, as itwas in 1972, to raise fundsthat are all returned to thecommunity as scholarships,art programs, beautifica-tion projects and services.”

Two local artists havebeen chosen to judge the125 exhibitors. Carl Gro-moll works as a wood furni-ture designer and DebraKetchum Jircik works inclay and handmade paper.

Local musician PattiKatz Black will entertainon the keyboard accompa-nying her pure vocal style.

More than 38 years ago,two brothers came to theNorth Woods seeking sum-mer jobs. Rooted in a strongItalian community in Chica-go, pizza was the staple athome and at college.

Seeing a lack of pizzeriasin the area, the brothers re-alized a great opportunityexisted and opened theirown pizzeria in Eagle River.

Sources say the locals atthe time looked down onthem and called them brashboys from “Chi-town.” Today,the pizzeria has become alandmark.

Customers come from allover the country to taste thebest pizza in the area.

Even celebrities have vis-ited Alexander’s on occasion,including professional foot-ball players; head coachesfrom the NFL, NBA andNCAA; hockey players;movie stars; movie critics;national sports commenta-tors; leaders of U.S. indus-tries; newscasters; and au-thors. A visiting film criticeven gave Alexander’s a“thumbs up.”

Although the businessopened many years ago, onething remains the same —the traditional method ofmaking pizza at Alexan-der’s. The pizza is made theway Grandma Del Cristosaid — use the best to makethe best.

The ingredients used areonly the finest, which theowners ensure. The cheeseused is 100% full-creammozzarella, which isstraight from the mostaward-winning dairy in Wis-consin, along with 9-month-aged Romano.

The soul of a pizza is thecrust, which is made withhigh-gluten flour. Addingflavor to the pizza is thethick, rich sauce createdfrom tomato puree frompear tomatoes — the meati-est of tomatoes.

The meat also is verylean, at 90% lean meat, withno soy fillers.

For the more adventur-ous pizza connoisseurs,Alexander’s offers broccoli,shrimp, albacore andpineapple to create originalgourmet pizzas.

This is the 44th yearthat the four-spot steam lo-comotive will carry passen-gers to the logging campcomplex in the heart of theNicolet National Forest.

From the Soo Line Depotin Laona, visitors climbaboard the 1916 Vulcansteam engine and travel tothe Wisconsin Forestry Mu-seum. This train has run onthe same tracks for morethan 85 years.

The tracks for the trainhave been completely re-built. The original trackwas built around the early1900s, its rails weighing ap-proximately 60 poundseach. The new rails weighin at 90 pounds and raisethe road bed up 15 inches.

The train itself datesback to the year 1916. Itwas then that the steam lo-comotive was built by Vul-can Iron Works in WilkesBarre, Pa. It was purchasedSept. 22, 1926, and broughtto Laona to haul logs.

The steam engine pullsthree cabooses, two steelcoaches and an open-air ob-servation car made from anold box car. The freshly re-painted coaches and caboos-es now stand gleaming,shiny and ready for riders.

The site of the WisconsinForestry Museum wasadded to the National Reg-ister of Historic Places in1996, and also has won nu-merous awards.

Children and adultsalike can enjoy the century-old animal barn and corral,which feature a variety ofbaby animals to feed andpet, including rabbits, kit-tens, guinea hens, turkeys,chickens and turtles.

Waldmann Constructionin St. Germain believes thatbuilding a home should be arewarding experience.

Staff at Waldmann alsobelieve the process of build-ing is as important as thefinal product, and that bothshould leave a positive, last-ing impression on those in-volved.

According to owner BradWaldmann, “When we builda home for a client, a part-nership is created in order toguide clients through whatbecomes a memorableevent.”

It begins with the initialdesign which can be an ex-isting plan or some notes ona napkin.

Waldmann explains,“We’ve had clients approachus with a drawing and ask,‘Will this stand?’ Or, ‘Canthe bathroom be made big-

ger?’ Sometimes there issentimental value in an ex-isting property that clientswant to incorporate into anew home or addition, suchas door trim with theheights of their children or atree in the yard that wasplanted when they married.”

Waldmann’s talented de -sign staff takes time to lis-ten to conceptual ideas andwishes in order to create aunique final product.

When a design is final-ized, building begins.

“Everything can be orga-nized through our office,”said Waldmann. “We workwith clients through budget-ing and permit applications,as well as product and colorchoices. It’s great to seeclients so comfortable withus that they come in, grab acup of coffee and head to thecabinet shop for a chat withthe carpenters. We handlethe scheduling of subcon-tractors and ordering of sup-plies to ensure quality con-trol and the timely comple-

tion of every job.” Waldmann Construc-

tion’s skilled craftsmen areproficient with many kindsof building materials, in-cluding log, timber, stick-built and SIPs panels.

Because Waldmann doesnot work exclusively withany log dealer, they are ableto offer products suited toclients’ budgets and needs.

Waldmann’s employeesare continually exploringnew products and being edu-cated on installation andnew techniques.

Green building has be -come an important part ofmany Waldmann Construc-tion projects. Building sus-tainable, low maintenance,energy-efficient projectshelps protect the environ-ment while many times en-abling owners to save moneyand improve their family’shealth, safety and comfort.

Waldmann’s building in -spector is certified to facili-tate safe removal of lead,mold and asbestos. A profes-

sional opinion is offeredbased on each individual sit-uation.

As the building projectcomes to an end, Brad Wald-mann believes the relation-ship has just begun.

“Waldmann Construction

stands by clients thoughwarranty issues, repairs andfuture projects. It isn’t justabout the bottom line on acontract,” said Waldmann.

“People want a reputablecontractor they can trust.We’ve been doing this formore than 25 years. We’veweathered the highs andlows of the economy and wearen’t going anywhere,”Waldmann said.

Waldmann Construction

is licensed in Wisconsin andMichigan. Photos of manyprojects and more informa-tion can be found online atwaldmannconstruction.com.

Waldmann Constructionis located in St. Germain, be-tween Minocqua and EagleRiver, at 6221 Highway 70East. The office may be con-tacted by telephone at (715)479-3132 or email at [email protected].
