x - Jak na to + styl
500g strong flour
1 tsp salt
7g dry yeast
325ml warm water
Just leaving these measurements here for myself :)
I guess I'll use them too if u dont mind
Thanks buddy
Leave dough to rise in a warm place for 2 hours. Bake for 7 minutes at 220•C. Saving this too
❤❤❤
If using instant yeast use less. I made this with 7g if instant yeast and it tripled in size instead of doubling, ended up being an American style deep pan pizza.
Scientific way of explaining how yeast works ...lol it goes babababa... puhpuhpuh..haha
It reminded me of the doctor explaining "time"
Vikas exactly what I was thinking lol! So funny. And I love how he explains the difference between burn and sweat.
Only thing is, yeast produces C02 not oxygen
Hahahahha
Love the "PUH" dashie? No? Ok. 😂
I've watched this each every time I make pizza. His voice is part of the experience. Thank you
He’s so charismatic and enthusiastic, best chef with the best dish ever!
Agreed
His accent and enthusiasm make me feel like he knows what he's doing
This man can make awesome quality margarita pizza anytime he wants. the key is that type of brick oven.
such a genuine love for food!
I'm hoping to make an oven like this in my garden next year!
Gennaro Contaldo cooked at the command of Antonio Carluccio the father of Italian food , I think Antonio Carluccio was like his mentor or something and they became great friends . Also , Gennaro was Jamie Olivers mentor at Antonio Carluccios restaurent , these people are 100% the best
He's norvegian. He's never made a pizza in his life. Very good actor though.
In this video i learned:
- how to make perfect pizza
- how to make the best video on youtube
- how to be positive
- how to enjoy your life to the max
This is not pizza, i m from italy i know how to make pizza and this is not the right step
@@vhfhkjdfhjcfghnn7247 ohh ide like to taste an italian pizza from a real italian 😋
@@vhfhkjdfhjcfghnn7247 True its not a pizza.....
@@vhfhkjdfhjcfghnn7247 could you please tell the difference, would be glad
Gn Fr the list is very long,i think is better for you to see italian cook pizza
An amazing chef, the sense of humour is impressive, I couldn't help smiling every minute.
When I have a crap day I come and watch Gennaro, never fails to cheer me up. If everyone had the passion for what they do that Gennaro does the world would be a million times better.
The way he explains the science of Yeast. Much more understandable than my teacher.
Except yeast doesn't produce oxygen, it produces carbon dioxide.
A small error that makes absolutely no difference at all to the magnificence of this video!

@@Federation42movies looking for this comment thanks. Maybe people learn what carbon monoxide is too what you think?

@@bigdogtabooya5426 Everywhere is dangerous, what's your point.
Of all the pizza dough recipes I've seen on CZcams with millions of hits this one wins by a long shot. The recipe is simple, easy, quick AND this guy is a blast to watch having fun make pizza! Gennaro is a legend!
You make it look so easy that i want to give it a try!..Thanks for sharing your recipes in a so creative & passionate way!
My only goal is to be as passionate about something in my life as this guy is about making pizza.
Amen to that!
Evi1M4chine well it’s the same with greek people every country in the south good weather friendly people and the most important thing is family. I don’t know if he can be same happy as people as I am I live in Greek I speak greek my family is Greek you can’t go for a year somewhere without to have someone relatives...
Well said! Same here.
@@JamieOliver la pizza Non si fa così perché tu hai messo tanto lievito lo hai fatto lievitare poco e non hai fatto a raggiungere la Magna glutinica quindi quello lì sarebbe cibo apposta per animali
I'm passionate to eat it..
This recipe has become my go-to base recipe, and every time I make pizza I run around my kitchen shouting "Why I cook so gooood!"
WHY YOU COOKING SOOOOOO GOOOOOOD?!!!
vinny142 wa
vinny142 hahah
Ben a person keep cooking!
vinny142 didn't understand how much water 325 ml?
This is so informative and fun! Thank you for teaching me the kneading and hole-fix techniques!
Gennaro's personality and presentation is so entertaining to watch! He makes one in a happy mood. I shall even be tempted to make this pizza as he makes it seem easy and so delectable.
How to make pizza Italian style :
1- unbutton your shirt
2-gold chain
3- speak like super Mario
4-get pizza ingredients
*Accurate*
m
Yep, it’s all about the preparation lol
Instructions unclear, I became a mafioso.
JulY
Damn this guy's happines just made my day

I did it I did it I did 🎉 the best master chef ever is this men I swear I followed his steps, my pizza was just amazing and my husband was shocked bcz I have never made a good pizza 😂 thank uuuuuuuu Gennaro
I've been trying to speak Italian but my hands start hurting after a while
Max Islas hahahaha nice one
Max Islas ahaha nice joke, I'm Italian but I have to admit that we move our hands too much sometimes
I totally forgot that I commented this haha
The Notorious I'm mexican but we also do lots of gestures when speak too hahahah (and most latin american countries I believe)
Seong Ahn Ji I'm Mexican as well but I don't do that lol
This guy is the best. I love his spirit.

+Jaws Soledad spirit Italian and Brazilian one are the best!!!! :)
Same too
I can't believe you think all of this show is real....what a moron you are, it is an act on the stereotype that idiots like you eat up.
his spirit transcends all.
I just love this guy! ❤ Love his positivity, love his italian accent and love his recipes! most of all i love italian food! 😍☺
I hope to be able to reach this mans energy levels and love for food one day
His vibe makes me happy
500 g. Strong flour (00)
1 Teaspoon salt
1 sachet of 7 g. yeast
325 ml. lukewarm water
Edit : I just checked CZcams 1 year later and see that 2.5K people liked this comment haha. Hope it helped ! Stay safe.
You are a noble man, good sir.
Hriday Mehta what did he put on the baking plate before resting it
@@realboekie Semolina (can also use bread crumbs)
Make sure that the flour can squat at least 150 kg unless you want weak pizza
@@realboekie he put somalia or something like that
500gms FLOUR
1tsp SALT
7gm. DRY YEAST
325ml WARM WATER
Thanks a lot🤗
@@ndebelechefsa4955 did you make it this way? how was it?
@@ChristinaT68 I've made it this way a bunch of times recently and it's turned out really well
can we do half of the recipe? or it is better to knead a bigger batch of dough?
@@ChristinaT68 I made double the recipe and it was soo delicious.I enjoyed every bit.
Thank you Mr. Contaldo for the great video. Your enthusiasm for the topic is almost as enjoyable as the pizza!
I love you Gennaro! You inspire so much to cook happy!
I have experimented with making expressive statements such as ' Fantastico!' and 'Bellissimo!' while cooking, and I can attest that this has increased my life satisfaction tremendously.
It's scientifically proven that speaking in italian makes you better at cooking
People here this coming from my kitchen "Ohhh My my my myyyyyyy."
@@josiahowen5408 😂😂😂
yesssss😂
Indeed, i've been saying 'looka dat' whenever i make something tasty. been saying it for years now. everyone thinks im stupid, because im british and it doesnt really fit.
500g Flour
325 ml warm water.
1 tsp salt
7 grams of dry yeast.
what kind of flour plain self rising?
Libby Holbrook strong flour (preferably Tipo 00)
Just making this now - the dough is on it's resting phase before shaping and topping. I used 00 flour and OMG the dough was sooooo silky smooth! I can't wait to see how it bakes up.
Thank you!
You need sugar to activate the yeast
I regularly follow this excellent way of making pizzas. Truly a hit with all the family. Many thanks Gennaro!!!
This is brilliant! I smiled when watching it, I smiled when making it and I smiled when eating it because of the passion that Genaro shows in the video. I made it vegan though, and it was a hit!
In reality this guy is the head of the italian mafia.
Italian mafia isnt really that bad, not in italy anyways.
"Italia"
haha i thought about the godfather when I first saw him
Hugh Mungus Bad meme trying to make fun of how its actually said here, but alright just for you my stale overused meme ill edit it.
Just like gustavo from breaking bad, had a food job and he was a gang member lol
"Oxygen goes bubble wooowowowowowowowowowowowowowwo"
Science, bitches!
I believe there was an extra wow at the end.
yeah get your facts straight. did you even take biology?
Actually it's carbon dioxide. Not oxygen.
Noah Dale huh... sir buzz kill over here
Devin Mysyk ;D
his enthusiasm is on another level. Love this video 🤌
Lovely and very charismatic ❤️loved this so much
I think the most important part of making a pizza is having that oven
Noora نورة no joke! I had cooked so much variations of Pizza! At the end i can say: when you have this oven, even a piece of dough will be great!!
That is quite the oven
yeap.
oven is 90% of good result
Yep! You don't get this high temperature in an standard home oven. I'm thinking about buying a small "Ooni" oven. They seem to be a good compromise for home pizza enthusiasts.
500g strong flour
1 teaspoon salt
7g dry yeast
325ml warm water
Jasdeep Chaggar thank you so much ❤️
Can you please tell me what does "strong" flour mean ? .. Is it all purpose flour or the pastry flour ?
@@A.Safigul I guess he meant unbleached flour
@@A.Safigul It means the flour has a high protein content. I use 12.7% protein bread flour.
@@A.Safigul it is bread flour
I just love this man , LOL the passion he has for food is incredible , What a guy
Thanks for making it look so easy and your passionate explanation of how it all works :). Keep it up
My god! I need to get up for work in less then 5 hours and here I am watching how to make a pizza!
Oh classic John

The way he describes how yeast works makes my heart sing!
MAN is he a joy to listen to! :D
Genious!!! I just looooove Gennaro!!
i love his energy and passion! hahaha. also the wat he described how the yeast worked! it's a novelty to watch him.
This guy is the neighbour you would love to have 🤗
I wouldn't eat his pizza

There is though, it's called American pizza
he is so positive and enthusiastic, the best of all time
I just discovered this guy. Late to the party I know, but I love him. His style, zest, warmth and how simple he makes the recipes. I’m now learning the basics of Italian cooking right here from an expert!

Depression is a life ruining illness. It is not cured by watching happy videos. If you think that, then you must be a bigger idiot than I give you credit for.
Lovely. So much passion. Now i know where Jaime Oliver got his passion from :)
Gennaro taught him well!
jaime is the stupidest thing i ever heard
Gennaro you make it look so easy. I love your cooking 👍
Never has a pizza made my mouth water so much!!!
I love watching Gennaro, He's so passionate!
Hes a walking italian stereotype...
His 'Passione' book is one of the best Italian cooking books around. Honestly.

wonderful accent from the old country

I think the best thing Jamie Oliver ever did was introduce the world to Gennaro Contaldo!
Not only that. He is also a great cook
I have tried it and it came out extremely good and tasty eventhough I have a regular oven. Thank you so much Gennaro 🙏
OMG best cooking video I've seen in awhile! Great food goes well with a great attitude and humor! I love it
He like... really celebrates his pizza 😅 my girlfriend looked quite worried when I tried to be just as enthusiastic about mine
He speaks with passion for cooking.Such a true Italian spirit.This makes the pica looks more delicious.
I absolutely love your enthusiasm
I love this man ❤❤❤working and having fun❤❤❤
I have tried this. And you are right about bread crumbs, they make pizza even more crusty. Everyone loved it! making it today again trying with semolina. TY Sir Genaro!
How did you make the bread crumbs or did you buy it?
I usually buy them, they are very cheap. But you can make them if you have old quality bread just mix them in food processor.
For some reason pizza with "semolina" was sticking to the pan, so I would advise using bread crumbs.
how was the crust?
+Wee Zhang Zhe I have made pizza today, both ways and we agreed that with bread crumbs was way better, it was crusty... very nice :)
thanks a lot! tried it too. you were right
Look, I've never ever in my life been able to cook a single thing that could be eaten. But this pizza? This pizza is magical.
Thanks a lot.

Great chef, great recipe! Love his wonderful attitude, and oh boy, do I love that wood fired oven!
If he taught my science class like that, maybe I would actually pay attention. haha
Zencann This man is full of shit so If he taught your science class like this you would NEVER graduate
He says Oxygen is created from the dough which makes it rise..
When mixing yeast sugar and water THE EXACT OPPOSITE IS CREATED.. Which is Co2 and Alcohol
NOT OXYGEN!!!!!
Saying that oxygen is formed in dough is like saying the ocean is made of fire
He was on about his enthusiasm when speaking
THE UNKNOWN okay buddy we know the science part, it's just his attitude we are talking about >.>, such a buzz kill
+THE UNKNOWN pretty sure its not his problem if you couldn't graduate because you thought this dough created oxygen lol
1972, walking in my then boyfriend’s town do Sommacampagna, in the Province of Verona, and we turned around to look behind us, and there was his entire family, the Nonni, the parents, the cousins and all the children. I definitely felt like I’d seen this scenario before in The Godfather! I began humming The song and the boyfriend became my fiancée and my husband of 47 years! Viva Italia!
Amazing
I recently tried this recipe. First time making pizza from scratch and on God it was heavenly.❤

I once ate in an Italian eatery where the margarita was superior to all the other pizzas with topping. If the dough, the tomato sauce, and the cheese are a perfect trinity you don't need to spoil it necessarily (!) with added toppings...
Did anyone say Hawaii?
