For those who remember last week Giada bashing Lovely for her doughnuts:
Pizza Dough Doughnuts is a Giada De Laurentiis Recipe
Last night on Food Network Star, Lovely Jackson was eliminated mostly due to the doughnuts she made as her dish in the movie challenge. Chris was wondering why you would make doughnuts with pizza dough and it seemed to be the theme of the episode. When the judges tried Lovely's doughnut, they overreacted and said they couldn't bite into the doughnut.
Then at the judging table, Giada De Laurentiis was giving the critique of Lovely and asked what she used to make the doughnuts, and when Lovely responded "pre-bought pizza dough," Giada gave her an eye roll. She also said the doughnut was 'dense' and 'unservable.'
Well, guess what? Giada uses Pizza Dough in her Italian Doughnut recipe on the Food Network website.
It is pretty much the same recipe, but it is listed twice, one for appearing on Everyday Italian, and one for appearing on an All-Star Desserts Special. Makes it pretty funny that everyone was so critical of a recipe that a fellow judge has done on multiple shows.
At least Sandra Lee and Sunny Anderson went with biscuit dough for their doughnuts.
