Ultimate Thin Crust Pizza 🍕 Recipe (ITS CRUNCHY)

[@seanaslam]

Correction at 5:24 - second time bake pizza for 8 minutes. First bake - 4 mins dough only Second bake - 8 mins with sauce cheese and toppings.

[@marioc63]

your eating sound is gross

[@mayhinson4900]

Very crispy! Very easy recipe!

[@mandoist]

There are more mistakes than this. You have no idea how this really works. Wherever you got this method, you misquoted measurements and more. Like going to a Shoarma place for Italian foods!

[@dewafatih9675]

no way 250ml water & 240g flour ratio. Its too much water

[@orangesmartie92]

I think your water to flour ratio is wrong. You have 100% hydration. Ratio should be measured in grams. Normally pizza dough is about 60% hydration. So if using 240g of flour, it's 144g of water. Not 250ml.

[@dandan141414]

Thanks. I'll give it a whirl. Currently, my best "cracker" crust recipe is achieved by using the pasta roller -- getting it way thinner than I can get with a rolling pin.

[@seanaslam]

Oh nice! I need to try that. I don’t have a pasta roller but I’ll order one to try it out. I make pizza every week and I always have an experimental pizza :D

This is now my new recipe for pizza crust. After years of searching for a thin crispy crust recipe I finally found it! My dough was too wet so I just added flour until it became the right consistency. I also put the skillet on the gas burner right before putting the dough on for the first bake to make it extra hot. This actually crisped up my pizza even more. My second pizza, I did not do this and it wasn’t as crispy. Thank you for this recipe!

[@seanaslam]

Glad it turned out great. I preheat my oven for 30 minutes and let the pan heat up in there. You have to make sure the pan is hot.

[@YumiFaeldo]

The recipe is 92% hydration, but the dough doesn't look that wet/sticky in the video. In my experience, anything above 70% is too difficult to handle

[@josephching7921]

You are right, with this water and flour ratio, it’s really difficult to handle and failure rate are high.

[@OngoGablogian185]

Had to thumb down and stop it the second he started making crunch sounds with his mouth right into a microphone.

[@faiforfun34]

Nah it's not work for me. I followed everything it came out watery dough TT

[@seanaslam]

i think ill make a tutorial video on how to mix the flour and water. i made it yesterday using same measurements and it came out fine.

[@rtc4369]

Sean, thanks for your sharing but please go over your ingredients, the amount of water and flour should not be equal, it came out like poolish. I added 140 more grams of bread flour and it finally became a nice dough. Please correct to make it right.

[@user-yz7ux1qj1v]

yea same...i was following the dough mix exactly as he says but turned out too watery....i added about 240g more flour...then its okay. i think he meant to say 2x240g of flour....he is confusing

[@tanyafamador6280]

thought it was just me. i did it twice, sure I made a mistake the first time. Added flour to get to the right consistency. this recipe seems to be incorrect.

[@borna5539]

​@Tanya Famador so how much water and flour should i use? And is the rest of the recipe correct?

[@glorytogodhomestead3495]

See above correction 😊

[@estherng6496]

Thank you I just bake it’s very crispy. Thank you 🙏👍

[@seanaslam]

Glad it came out great. :)

[@Juangalt]

There's no way your pizza sounds like that based on the way it moves. You added sound in post.

[@mandoist]

No doubt!! Even without knowing the subject matter I could discern it was a bogus sound track for the "crunch" the second it happened. YouBoob sucks for this and many other bogus uploaded reasons. Musical instrument "lessons" are the worst!!!

[@Random-k3n6x]

Tried this recipe, and it’s AMAZING! all my family loved it

[@PaulRobson]

92% hydration appeared to be excessively high for a thin style pizza crust. I lowered mine to approximately 85% and the results were pretty good

[@eduardochavacano]

very clear instructions!

[@ttn5629]

Impossible ratio water/flour for a pizza dough, it's more a poolish (pre-fermentation) for French baguette recipe than thin pizza.

[@MarLindaPerez-s1i]

I've been looking for a recipe to make for my hubby that doesn't involve hours and hours of work. This looks great! Going to try this and see if he like it. 😊Thanks so much for sharing.

Pizza Sauce. Not Ragu. Make my own Sauce or use Cirio's Pizza Sauce. Very good flavor.

[@zeldatanit4346]

My ultimate favorite “thin pizza” is actually a Turkish pizza called lahmacun (pronounced lah-mah-joon) which is arguably not a “pizza pizza” by western standards since the dough is just literally basic flat bread flour water and salt… it ends up being like a soft crunchy pizza “taco” hahaha 😂. But I’m curious to try the typical Mediterranean meat toppings on a regular thin crust pizza. I’ll tag you and let you know how it turned out 😁

[@itsmevan2023]

Can i use instant dry yeast?

[@seanaslam]

Yes you can use it.

[@pllee0]

Gosh so confusing. It was too sticky. Is it 200 or 240 or 270 dor flour. You said 200 caption 240. And recipe 270. 😢

[@LOLO-up1xw]

The translation from cup to ml/mg is a disaster. My dough looks like soup with the ml/mg recipe. I suggest keep your recipe orgianl way, whichever you used.

[@andiedavis2076]

Try RAO marina for the pizza sauce. AMAZING! So much better than Prego!

[@mrphil4085]

250 ml of water or a cup of water is too much for 200 of flour...i had to add flour because the dough was LIQUID!!!!

[@cullenhutchinson9544]

Why is the video proportions different than the written instructions?

[@prutai7274]

After I use rolling pin to flatten the pizza dough.. Can I wrap it with cling wrap and place it in freezer until to be bake and eaten by several days /week?

[@theresadimaggio7241]

Thank you for the recipe. Ive always tried to make a thin crust pizza, however I had failed. Until i saw your recipe. Thank u. God bless you

[@douglassnyder1292]

Hello, thank you for this video. I tried this recipe and it turned out great. Very nice crunchy crust! Question: After the dough is all prepped and ready for cooking, can I put the dough in the fridge and save it for a day or two later? Or, does it have to be used right away? Thank you

[@KCLewis1956]

I have the same question. ;-)

[@Ashlar5126]

Looks good. I use Rao’s pizza sauce. Excellent.

[@seanaslam]

Thanks :)

[@mandoist]

"Crispy" must be an American problem? If you want REAL thin-crust pizza go to Rome. Or if you live in Netherlands, check out "De Pizzabakkers". Not many of these pizza-only restaurants but they are extremely authentic. Use imported Italian pizza ovens, genuine ingredients, make their own Limoncello and beers. They've nailed the Roman thin-crust pizza!!!

[@chaitanyakurandwad1905]

Me too

[@jvc8947]

Make the sauce. Save money and tastes better. No cook- kitchen ready tomatoes.

[@samoliver9085]

Tried this Pizza Today. I have to say the Pizza Dough is Crunchy. I used a 220mm cast iron pan with loops on both sides. I first prepped the Cast Iron Pan 6 cycles of seasoning. Works well. I separated it into 4 segments as he directed. Rolled it out really thin. The other Dough I put in the Fridge until next time. Well Done. Thank you.

[@seanaslam]

I am glad it came out good :). Thanks for sharing your process.

[@ashleyciancio6688]

So glad to hear that. This pizza is truly unique.

[@rainnmoon114]

Did you use bread flour or all purpose?

[@srhbdg]

@@rainnmoon114 i have the same q mate..

[@Mysterix619]

Hey do you oil your cast iron before putting the dough on it? It seems oily or is it just reflection of light? Amazing recipe btw. I'm literally proofing my dough as I'm asking this question lmao.

[@seanaslam]

Thanks for the complement So I guess should have mentioned that I have cured my cast iron pan. Basically first wash your pan with soap and wool steel. Dry it properly. Then coat it with oil. I used olive oil. (But they to use grape seed. Because of high temps). Then I take my oven to the highest temp and bake the cast iron pan by it self. The oil infuses and creates that oilly surface. Then your pan becomes non stick. Probably best to check this video out: m.kzbin.info/www/bejne/gX2qhH95ltCmmrs.

[@lennyg2821]

how much flour you have 240g in video and 270 g in written recipe

[@nei5553]

So how much flour? The description says 270g, the video caption says 240g, and I can't quite hear what you say in the audio, but sounds like 200g. Please clarify, thanks!

[@mandoist]

240g (equal to 2 cups)

[@williammessenger9637]

Not wasting my time where the content creator is either unwilling or unable to speak and articulate their process.

[@davidjohnson9064]

try 2/3 mozz and 1/3 munster cheese.........

[@flakkalakka6256]

I love how you mentioned alternative methods like with the skillet, mixer and bread flour. In many recipes I guess what to do and it doesn’t work most of the time. Thanks a lot will definitely try it.

[@seanaslam]

Do try it out. Hope it’s goes well for you.

[@ch0c0latefeast]

Can I remove the crust from the skillet after the first bake to add the toppings? Then put it back in? Or will that mess up the recipe? Kids love to help add toppings and I don’t want them to burn themselves. Thank you!

[@seanaslam]

That’s a great question. You can remove the crust and place it on your counter or plate. With the first bake you would have already cooked the dough so it won’t mess up as the crust as it has already risen. Good luck 👍🏻

[@ch0c0latefeast]

Thank you!

[@user-yz7ux1qj1v]

i use 240g water and 250g flour butnit was too watery....had to put another 240g of flour and adjust accordingly....why? maybe your measurement is wrong?

[@seanaslam]

The ideal dough ratio is 1 cup water to 2 cups flour. The trick however is to add water in several stages. Add one third water at the beginning to the flour and try and consolidate everything in to a ball. Add another one third and try to smooth the whole ball at much as possible. The last one third has to be added half at a time. Add, knead thoroughly.

[@barbarachan7991]

I hv the same experience. It’s not abt the grams, it’s abt the 1:2 ratio.

[@HavenUpsurge]

If crunchy is what you are after, try a solid fat rather than a liquid. Try some lard.

[@HavenUpsurge]

Also, put some olive oil in the pan after it preheats. And season the oil, garlic powder, oregano, fresh cracked pepper, semolina. Seriously this makes INSANE pan pizzas

[@seawaddles3872]

Bruh... 250ml water. You said 200G flour but the caption says 240G. That's between 100 to 125 percent hydration. I've never really seen pizza crust go over 90% at the very most. Good luck to amateur or anyone without a mixer. To anyone just getting started with dough you should shoot for like 70 percent hydration, will be WAY easier to work with and you won't quit half-way through

[@corteltube]

I make my own....my crusts are good but prefer thin crust...going to trying this...thanks...

With 250g of water, and 240g of flour, this would be a bit over 100% hydration. There’s no way that’s right. What’s the accurate water:flour %?

[@seanaslam]

1 cup water to 2 cup flour is the ratio

[@martinmilan6271]

Water weights more than flour that’s why it looks like it’s more water than flour 🙄😑 If you use cups, it’s a 1 to 2 ratio

[@francescaemc2]

Thank you. This looks like an excellent recipe for home. I use Italian 00 flour and make the sauce. If I have no sauce, we make "Pizza bianca"-- which is without tomatoes... onions, and burrata, for example... with a few capers and Parmigiano Reggiano. You can slice thin the onions and throw into hot water for a half a minute... Another is anchovies and black olives --no cheese... with a thin crust it is excellent.Buon appetito!

What did I do wrong? I tried following the recipie. Firstly, the dough was runny. Did I add to much water? So, I added some more flour and the dough looks better. Secondly, the dough wouldn’t stretch even after keading in a food processor for 15 mins and manually by hand for 15 mins. 🤷🏼‍♀️ the dough is resting now. We’ll see how it goes.
