What would you put on your perfect pizza? 🙋🏻‍♂ Should I admit I like pineapple?

[@peeparoni]

I would put black olives and sausage!

I will tell everyone even if not asked, but in my opinion the biggest game changer in pizza making is using turkish kasar cheese. To me that is the best cheese hands down for any kind of baked cheese use case.

Kashkaval is a great pizza cheese and very similar to low moisture mozz. It‘s pretty widely available in germany too (think Lidl, Kaufland, turkish supermarkets)

[@mynameisandong]

kashkaval is perfect melting cheese! 🙌

[@prorastanate4665]

Snap! i think its similar to kasar peynir which i find in the UK.

[@legion_prex3650]

thanks for the tip!

[@Damian0358_]

To emphasize the choice of kashkaval for pizza, back home in Serbia, many pizza places use kačkavalj for their pizza cheese, often listed as the first ingredient in terms of toppings. I can imagine you could probably find similar cases elsewhere in the Balkans too, so there's plenty of precedent for its use!

[@albertozino1474]

As an italian who craved pizza in germany, I approve this message. Turkish cheeses are much better than any mozzarella found in german supermarkets.

[@CastleofFiemme]

Thanks for showing some ingredients that you found in Germany! I live in Frankfurt and I usually go for rewe's slices of low moisture mozzarella and spicy calabrian sausage from the counter The pizza you made looks like the better version of Dr.Oetker's Ofenfrische pizza

[@bioharry8192]

@miluki1822 Aldi (Süd at least) has 300 or 400g logs of Mozzarella, which is quite low moisture, I think. It's great for Pizza and way better than fresh Mozzarella

[@WinsonPaine]

off the dome i think the "cheese juice" is mostly butter and whey; butter is gonna taste good in a crust whenever and whey is gonna juice the protein content of your dough which is gonna be more gluten and make a much chewier crust, it is a fantastic idea

[@albertozino1474]

not really, whey/milk protein are dough tenderizers. They don't make "more gluten" but the opposite. which in a quick yeasted dough is actually a very good thing, makes it crispier and softer.

[@OttoStrawanzinger]

I actually started using scamorza cheese on pizza when I can find it in shops, instead of worrying too much about mozzarella. When you think about it, it‘s also a pasta filata cheese, just a lot drier and slightly more aged, and gives a good cheesy flavour to the pizza while still being as melty as mozzarella.

When american pizza (and many others) recipes call for "mozzarella" it's usually more like scarmoza. Thats also why its so yellow. Its very different from the low moisture mozzarella here. If you want a cheese to replace that "US pizza mozzarella" just use scarmoza instead. It does have a slightly stronger flavour than US "mozzarella" though.

Yellow? Since when? Where in the US?

It doesn't help for the cheese crust *but* about two years ago I went through every single "Pizza-cheese" bag at my local REWE and found that Finello Pizzakäse is literally just shredded low moisture Mozzarella, haven't looked back since. Day and night difference to my previous attempts with fresh mozzarella. Also I've recently found out that Edeka also now has shredded low moisture Mozzarella which also works pretty well, but obviously is only available at Edeka (some of them). Also, if you have access, Metro sells literal "Pizza Pepperoni" like... the real deal. I bought a 1kg packet and threw it in the freezer, you can just throw it on the pizza right out of the freezer and it will have the perfect consistency after 8-10 minues of baking.

[@kpnitrl38]

After watching your video, I decided to buy a pan pizza from Pizza Hut. Thanks for the inspiration!

[@cosmoscooking7852]

Lots of naan recipes include yoghurt for that slightly tangy taste, I wonder if the leftover ‘mozzarella juice’ does something like that. I imagine it’s whey protein and maybe slightly acidic? If so if could change the texture of the dough. I saw a while ago that Kenji adds vinegar to his bread dough to make the dough ‘stronger’. When I’ve done that, it also gives the bread a sourdough like taste which is great 😊

[@babuyadav2336]

Your instincts are super accurate. The remaining whey which separates while separating milk solid from whole milk while preparing paneer is often used to make bread/roti/chapati in Indian households

[@konisama6874]

I would say no to acidic. They milk for mozz is treated with enzymes wich make the proteins curdle. And u use very little of it. Joghurt is a product of fermentation, where friendly microorganisms are living in our product, and they turn the lactic sugar(the one that non dairy ppl struggle with) and turm it into lactic acid, which is responsible for the taginess. Could be creamy though!

[@ncasey88]

Man, I’ve been making pizzas for several years (pan, stone, steel, gozney etc etc) The mozzarella hack is game changing. Potentially the greatest thing I’ve learned from food KZbin that wasn’t taught by J Lenji Lopez-Alt. I commend you sir. I commend you

[@S3lvah]

My man just outdid Adam Ragusea in resourcefulness with the homemade low-moisture mozz technique. I wonder if it has a similar desirable acidic tang to the high-quality store-bought kind, too.

[@OmniversalInsect]

I think I remember Adam saying that cheese companies use some industrial process for drying that's not possible at home, might try and see if this method tastes good.

[@babuyadav2336]

@@OmniversalInsectIt doesnt matter either ways. Low moisture mozzarella just isn’t available in most parts of Europe. If you want to do it, this hack might be the only way or just use another cheese like a super young Gouda or something.

Fabulously helpful for those of us who have been trying to make a pizza at home from scratch. As to the mozarella being too wet to begin with, I simply squeeze it repeatedly and eventually it becomes low moisture mozarella. It's a lot simpler than dry frying it, too.

[@madcowpp]

Did I miss it or didn't you show the cheese crust after baking?

[@MoonLight19089]

this looks sooo good

[@jacquespoulemer3577]

Aleksey, I'm happy to see someone else not waste whey. I've been using whey in bread baking since the 1970s. you can also use it in cakes, doughnuts, pancakes, flatbreads, biscuits, cookies, etc etc anytime you need liquid. you can freeze the whey and use it later. as a money saving tip, whenever I have a cheap teflon pan that the handle breaks off of, I save it for baking, pizza, pies, flatbreads, etc. This is a wonderful service to humanity. I always toss an anchovy into my tomato sauce, same difference. My preferred pizza style is Sicilian. Thick crust which I bake first ALONE. then the parm with sauce on top, heat that. Then the toppings and finally the cheese (mix of 3) for the last 10 minutes to simply melt it. All made in a wonky Mexican oven that varies in heat from moderate (350F 180C) to ridiculously hot (450F 220C) but the pizza doesn't seem to care hehehe I'm sure you guys are making many home cooks very happy.

the origin of pizza was some people in italy putting whatever ingredients they had on top of some kind of bread with some kind of sauce, so in essence the most authentic pizza is whatever pizza you string together with what you have. theres no such thing as breaking the pizza rules

That's both right and wrong, simply because over time, what we call a typical Italian pizza took a singular shape and it's not using just whatever you have..

to dry your mozzarella, you can use a microwave on "defrost" setting.

[@sebastianahrens2385]

This video couldn't be timed more perfectly for me. I've been trying to get as close as I can to neapolitan-esque pizza, but the one enemy I still face is the occasional gum line on the top layer of the dough. Not only did you use the literal exact same canned tomatoes that I do, but also adressed something I wanted to try: thickening the sauce. Having tried your turkish lentil soup, I expect VERY much from that tomato sauce. If you're reading this and haven't tasted the soup I really, really urge you to try it. It's an absolute blast of flavors, in all the right ways. I'll leave another comment once I've made and tasted the tomato sauce, looking forward to that! Also, side note: Dough handling for neapolitan pizza is probably a bit challenging for the first 2-3 times, but after that it's pretty easy. My top tip is to watch some videos on wet dough handling for bread - the techniques and strategies you learn there will make all the difference. And a side side note: I love your approach to cooking. Fish Sauce on pizza, forming and baking that pizza in a pan, plastic bags as covers... whatever works, works. I'd much rather take something like that than a recipe that is perfect on paper, but unattainable for the average home cook due to ingredient or tool constraints.

[@michaelmcnally1242]

also in re: "too much", google "South Shore bar pizza", a species of pan pizza from bars in a region south of Boston (and, typically, not really near a "shore"), they load those things down. Also they treat the edges not as crust to hold on to, it's more like Detroit pizza where the point is to let the edges of the pie burn a little bit.

You know, I've been trying all the make at home neopolitan hacks for years now, and some were better than others but none of them really left me satisfied.

Thank you for that awesome mozzarella hack. In Denmark we have that exact same issue - no low moisture mozzarella unless its Italian week in Lidl. I have a baking steel, but I don't use it much because of the amount of preheating required in the oven.

Looks delicious. Do you happen to know if using margerine or even vegetable oil to coat the pan with works as a substitute? I don't want to upset any lactose intolerant guest's stomachs with this. Bonus question: I was fully expecting you to use like a cast iron pan or something from IKEA at first (or even a ceramic pie tray). Do you know how well these interact with the dough? Still crusty or would I need to experiment with a different dough composition?

[@rogink]

When I read 'pan pizza' in the description I assumed it meant 'frying pan' - which I have seen a while ago - although of course you finish it off in the oven. I don't think I've ever seen those large round baking trays - pizza trays are usually perforated, so I don't think they would work for this. For me when I make pizza the main problem is getting the sauce right - I've spent ages trying to reduce tomatoes to a sauce, so might just try this idea of blending tinned tomatoes.

[@NirvanicSunshine]

I'll use soy sauce instead of fish sauce. Basically the same thing, but without the fish. Super solid home pizza making system. My own favorite homestyle pizza recipe is borne of the same sort of long series of trial and error innovations. Definitely giving it a try when I get back to the states. We use provolone for the lighter flavor pizza cheese varietal here. I love your home comfort food engineering videos, Andong. :)

If you add garam masala and garlic salt to substitute some of the salt in the dough it will taste very savory. I'm still experimenting with additives. I don't suggest that one, its not right. But it was very interesting and maybe gives someone ideas lol. Fresh chopped basil goes hard as a topping. You can put the cheese on a strainer over a bowl in the fridge overnight and a lot of water will come out. Not likely good enough for one like yours though.

[@CelticWolfcat]

Had a hankering, this recipe was in my try book but I didn't have all the things. Sorry semolina you missed the party but being full flour didn't hurt the results too badly, we do what we must. Same with the mozz liquid but that was bc I already had low moisture mozz on hand so I used the recipes call for milk in replacement. Another thing I didnt have was tomato paste and fish sauce... But you know what I did have? Sun dried tomatoes and oyster sauce. The sauce was actually really tasty and thickened up nicely with the sun dried tomatoes anyways and the savory flavor was so there with the oyster sauce and a touch of soy to get the salt kick and more msg. Just goes to show that this recipe still works well even if you don't got the exact stuff!

That pizza looks great. Pan pizzas are The perfect home cook pizza because they're so forgiving. Some of the techniques employed here are genius. Turning the fresh mozzarella into low moisture. I never even considered that. And then using the extracted juice to make the dough. Even more genius. I really want to try that next time I do pizza. I wonder how well that cheese would work and my typical mozzarella and muenster blend. Well it doesn't hurt to try. I'm also curious about that sauce. I've never been a fan of whole tomatoes just because they're so watery and bland. Even the revered San Marzano, I just don't get the hype. Seems to me like it enjoys undeserved prestige. But I'm always willing to try new techniques, and although My normal sauce recipe uses paste, I never even thought to use it with blended up San Marzano. Definitely worth a shot. It'll be a little bit before I try, but I think this is probably a keeper.

Ich habe eine Pizza in einer tatsächlichen Pfanne gemacht ... ist zwar etwas tricky am Anfang aber das Ergebnis ist wie aus dem Holzofen. Das Topping wird noch etwas mit der Lötlampe angekokelt.

[@baumgrt]

The mozzarella liquid is probably slightly acidic, which weakens the gluten somewhat and makes the dough more stretchy

[@paulmmurray3733]

This is my perfect pizza sauce. Mutti crushed tomatoes, fresh microplaned garlic, freshly home dried herbs from the garden, Italian tomato paste, virgin olive oil, salt and cayenne chilli, also from the garden. Add it all to a saucepan and heat on low for 10 min. Turn it off and let it steep till it is room temp. The flavour profile is outstanding. The fish sauce is a nice touch but I prefer the real anchovies, especially the white Italian marinated ones.
