Hungarian here, if anyone wants to try lángos as well, the toppings are a bit different. Sour cream (instead of tomato sauce) and cheese are a must, optionally add garlic or oiled garlic, small pieces of fried bacon or ham, and corn. At least that's how we usually eat it around my region.

To all my Hungarian homies - yes, Lángos is very similar to this, but the Neapolitans have cracked the same code: Just fry some proofed dough and put tasty stuff on top :D

[@MrRadoeom19]

Excactly, good old Langos :D

[@lalalilolu1]

Well.. yep. But Slovak langoš is a bit better than Hungarian in my opinion. Hungarian has a bit too much crunch. Slovak langoš has that smooth buttery inside and crunchy outside. 😉

Finally someone talks about lángos. ( As a Hungarian this is one of my favorite foods) It’s worth a “but cheaper”.

[@khalilahd.]

Looks amazing

[@1337gaia]

You can't really do a 'but cheaper' version on Lángos, on the countryside you can still get a garlic Lángos for around 350 forint which is less than 1 $. Yes, doing it at home, making an enriched yeast dough, frying it and topping it with garlic oil, sour cream & cheese might be a few cents cheaper but not worth the effort and the whole apartment being in a cloud of frying oil when you can get it that cheap. You COULD do a 'but better', fancier version though 😇

[@MJHiteshew]

OMG!! Pizza #2 is what I ate all the time growing up in South Jersey, but it was called a panzerotti. They were larger and filled with different meats but made the same way! Brings back great childhood memories!

[@stephanierosanio]

i was just thinking the same 😂

[@PoWaMangaTheReturn]

Italian here: yes it's basically a panzerotto with another meat in there, usually there's tomato sauce, mozzarella and prosciutto cotto (ham)

[@francescolongobardi8291]

Nice work! The classic "Pizza fritta" here in Naples is the stuffed one but inside it has ricotta (a lot), mozzarella, pepper, some tomatoes (not the sauce though) and diced "cicoli", which is similar to guanciale but is obtained from pork fat. You should try it out, it's delicious!

[@Ben-rz9cf]

Yes i agree as someone who visits naples every chance i get :D i am just happy to finally see someone talking about pizza fritta as it should be way more popular abroad. Yall need to start some pizza fritta restaurants in the states

[@cjay2]

I was given a small "fried pizza" as part of an antipasto this past July in Napoli (Naples). It sucks. It's a trend. It's garbage. Just saying.

[@francescolongobardi8291]

@@cjay2 was it stuffed or just a piece of fried dough? Anyway, just because you had one that was bad it doesn't mean they are all bad. I suggest you give it another try next time you find yourself in Naples, if you still don't like it means it's not for you😄

[@axel.lessio]

@@francescolongobardi8291, ci saranno sempre quei turisti che cadono nelle trappole: pagano 50 euro, mangiano da schifo e poi raccontano in giro che il cibo in Italia é terribile. Ne ho visti a bizzeffe e purtroppo è colpa nostra che permettiamo a certi ristoranti di rappresentare l'Italia.

[@ZoeAlleyne]

Is it very different than a calzone? I need to go back to Naples as I did not eat all of the food there. I miss Italy.

[@1337gaia]

Lángos is sometimes made with an enriched yeast dough, so e.g. with milk instead of water. Fried and then topped with garlic oil, sour cream & grated cheese :)

[@leventenagy272]

I had one when I was a kid thinking I'd just bought a sweet fried dough because it had what it looked like sugar on top. Imagine my face when I tasted the garlic oil.

[@romannoodls1920]

Josh - “Pizza you’ve never heard of.” Me - “That’s a fucking calzone.”

[@brunofresnedas7692]

The second dish reminds me of a fried calzone. There's a famous pizza place in Botucatu/Brazil that serves this. Its AMAZING! I can't believe that its not more popular in BRazil, given how much we love pizza and like to experimente with toppings and filled borders.

[@eddy_6502]

Well it’s pizza fritta, the first one is called montanara. The calzone is baked

[@jerrislittlereef4023]

[@zeideerskine3462]

Apparently Slovacs , too. I think it would be great for everybody with a traditional recipe of the fry bread kind to add the country of origin, name and history of the dish, serving style, occasion of serving, and recipe to the comments. Then Joshua shall make a fry bread around the world series.

This is a Navajo Taco turned into a pizza! Kind of brilliant. As always.

[@locke821]

The 1st one is really "Langos". The filled one is "Pizza Calzone (Neapolitana)". Besides (of course) in Italy, it's soled in Hannover (Germany) for min. 30 years at every corner. But it's nice, you showed it to the world. Too sad, it is not soled everywhere, so I made it by myself for about 25 Years.

[@tuyi747]

Hey Josh , I love your videos, I think i haven't missed any of them for 2 years, also I'm French and I would like to let you know that the "bouquet" made from oregano and tyme in France we call it a "bouquet garni " and not a "bouquet de garni" Thanks for what you've done there so far

[@HeyItsAmber99]

The shape of the first one reminds me, could you do Indian Tacos at some point? I used to live on various reservations, and they would get-at least what my family called-"frybread", and put cheese, beans, lettuce, tomato, and ground beef. It was very thick, but wonderful.

[@emmasofie8718]

Hey they also have this in Puglia, Italy: Panzerotto! I tried it, but it was too much for me haha. Still delicious though!!

[@Gasmaska69]

Where i am from - Macedonia - we call this type of fried dough "Mekica". It can be eaten with Ajvar, with cheese, on its own, however you want it. There is a recipe to make the dough with yogurt, look these up on the internet and don't be afraid to try making it's very simple.

[@anantsharma8897]

Without the pizza toppings the first fried dough looks exactly like a galician "oreja". We use to eat these with powered sugar on top though, is a really nice dessert but this looks amaaaaazing too👌

[@littlefarmer1303]

Try and make the dough with homemade kefir instead of water and your dough will be on the next level. In Hungary there is a "fridge lángos dough" variety, that you can keep in the fridge for up to a week and fry some every single day, whenever you like it. It is made with kefir, fermented milk. I know you like fermented food. It is super delicious. Once you mix it, put olive oil on top, place the dough in the fridge, leave it for 3-4 hours to rise slowly and after it is ready to use. Or the next day, or the day after, for up to a week. If you are fancy for something sweet, just top it with homemade strawberry jam and cream. Yummm. You can fill it with sweet filling as well, when you fold it. I know, it's all about sweets now 😂 Enjoy. We love your videos, greetings from Scotland.

[@alyssan912]

Pizza #2 is called Florida style inside out where I’m from (Philadelphia) Also, plz try fried pizza dough with powdered sugar, it’s a huge hit at the Italian festivals near me and it’s delish

[@gamechaos2405]

The closed pizza reminds me of Brazilian ‘pasteis’ (singular: ‘pastel’), basically fried dough with some kind of savory filling. There’s also sweet pasteis but usually they have meat and/or cheese. I’m not really sure what you would call them in English, probably fried pastry or something.
