Pizza Margherita with Parmigiano Reggiano | Gennaro Contaldo

This Parmigiano Reggiano Pizza is certain to get the pizza party going! Simple and delicious, you can follow the recipe, which makes 2-3 large pizzas below.
INGREDIENTS
To make the dough:
500g Plain flour
10g Salt
1 x sachet Dried Yeast
Approx. 325ml Lukewarm water
For the toppings:
300g Tinned plum tomatoes
Salt & pepper
Extra virgin olive oil, for drizzling
30g Parmigiano Reggiano, grated/shavings
Basil leaves
150g Mozzarella, roughly chopped
METHOD
1. Combine the flour, salt, and dried yeast in a large bowl. Gradually add lukewarm water and mix well until you obtain a dough.
2. Shape the dough into a ball and leave to rest covered with a cloth for 5 minutes. After this, the dough will be more pliable to work with.
3. Knead the dough for about 10 minutes until smooth and elastic, then split into 2-3 balls. Knead each pieces for a couple more minutes and shape into a ball.
4. Cover the dough with a slightly damp cloth and leave to rise in a warm place for about 30 minutes, until it has doubled in size.
5. Meanwhile, crush the tomatoes slightly with a fork, season with salt & pepper, and mix well. Preheat the oven to its highest setting.
6. Sprinkle some flour on a clean work surface and spread the dough into a circle, making it as thin as possible without tearing it. Sprinkle some breadcrumbs on 2-3 large baking trays and place the pizza bases on them.
7. Drizzle a little olive oil on each base then spread a little of the tomato evenly. Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with Parmigiano Reggiano, add a few basil leaves, and top with some mozzarella.

I love Gennaro because he doesn't come off snobbish whatsoever - "Stick it in the oven, it doesn't matter if you don't have a wood fired pizza oven" There's plenty of chefs out there who'd disparage you for using an electric oven but not Mr Contaldo 😎👍

[@disdonc6012]

Well the truth is just that normally in an electric oven the pizza dough will never turn out the same.

[@ozanyener]

It doesn't matter much if it's an electric or wood fire oven. What does matter is the heat. And you can't get this result with a conventional oven. Especially with this water-flour ratio. You probably get a very dry, crunchy pizza.

[@yahiaess178]

He prefer the traditional style Perfect

[@xGoodOldSmurfehx]

@@ozanyener The reason why electric oven for pizza are often shunned is because they dont really deliver any of the imperfections of wood fire nor do they cook the same and therefore dont produce the authentic traditional results Is the hate justified? No Is the hate logical? Yes Making pizza is 30% about ingredients, 70% about method I speak from experience when i say you will NEVER achieve the result of a wooden fired oven with an electric oven unless it is specifically engineered to literally simulate wood fire which is a very rare kind of electric oven if it even exists You will NOT find anything that even comes close to an artisan pizza in chains like Domino's, they all use standard electric oven and despite what they all claim their dough is low quality at worse or average quality at best

[@denisr7710]

@@xGoodOldSmurfehx i'd argue about the ratio between ingredients and method.. i made amazing pizza that was truly better than a lot of restaurants in my shitty old frigidaire electric oven. but you do have to make the dough, find good cheese and passata

[@KoH4711]

I would just like to say how amazing it is to have such a talented chef still able to share with all of us his beauty as well as his cooking. Thank you, Signore! With every Italian dish, I think of you, therefore, I hope to always have a breath of your life in every dish I make.

BEST chef EVER!!! Лучший шеф !!!

[@ryustreetfighter8722]

Me and my 10 year old Daughter absolutely love Gennaro, every weekend when my daughter comes round my house we watch Gennaro contaldo and then go shopping for ingredients and cook along watching Gennaro. He inspired my Daughter to eat really good food, and now my 10 year old daughter can cook many dishes from scratch by herself and her food is miles better then most places to eat in my area. This weekend we are making the chocolate ricotta cannoli which Jamie O and the main man Gennaro did recently on Jamie Oliver's channel.

[@dwaynewladyka577]

My favorite pizza is Margherita pizza. That pizza looks very good. Cheers, Gennaro!
