    ***RECIPE***
    10-inch Cast Iron Pan Pizza
    Serves two - if you want to feed more people, you need more pans
    1/4 teaspoon active dry yeast
    1 teaspoon sugar
    1/2 cup warm water
    1-1.5 cups flour (bread or all purpose)
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    olive oil
    cornmeal
    oregano
    additional salt
    pepper
    1/3 cup canned pureed tomatoes (I like Pastene "Kitchen Ready" ground tomatoes)
    additional sugar
    fresh basil
    grated parmesan
    4 ounces whole milk, low moisture mozzarella, grated and kept cold
    1 jalapeño pepper (optional), thinly sliced
    Mix the yeast, sugar and warm water together in a bowl and let sit for 5 minuets. If the yeast float to the top and start to go foamy, that means they're alive and you're good to proceed. Put in one cup of flour and the 1/2 teaspoon of salt, mix until it comes together, flour your hands and start kneading. Keep adding flour as needed to keep the dough from being untenably sticky, but don't add too much; it should be pretty wet and sticky at the end. Knead until you can stretch it out thin without it tearing. Form the dough into a smooth ball, coat it and the inside of the bowl with olive oil, cover, and let rise - either for at least 24 hours in the fridge, or 1-2 hours at room temperature - until doubled in size.
    In a 10-inch cast iron pan (or 10-inch Teflon pan), pour in enough olive oil to coat the bottom well. Put in a pinch of cornmeal, a little oregano, lots of black pepper and a small pinch of salt. Mix that together with your fingers and spread the seasoned oil around the bottom, corners and edges of the pan. Before you wash your hands, grab the risen dough ball and stretch it out a little wider than the pan. Put it in the pan, and let ir proof in there for a half hour, until puffy.
    For the sauce, combine the tomatoes with a glug of olive oil, a pinch of sugar, and a few torn leaves of fresh basil. Make sure your cheese is ready and kept cold in the fridge.
    Put the pan on your largest burner. Turn the burner on medium and your oven's broiler (grill) on high. Spoon the sauce onto the dough and spread it edge to edge. After the heat has been on for about 5 minutes, sprinkle the pizza with parmesan and then the mozzarella, edge to edge. Put on the jalapeño slices (or any other toppings, or not), and get ready to transfer the pizza to the oven. It's hard to tell when the right moment is - in my cast iron pan, 7-8 minutes from the time I turn on the burner is the perfect time, but it takes practice. The best indicator may be your nose - the second you smell something starting to burn, move the pizza. Broil it on a high rack until the top is brown to your liking, 4-5 minutes.
    Remove the pizza and let it cool in the pan until firm. Use a butter knife to release the rim of browned cheese from the pan, and then pull the pizza out with tongs. The bottom may stick a bit - you can either try to scrape under there to release it, or simple tear it off with the tongs, it should be solid enough after cooling down to come out intact.

    Q: Didn't Babish just make a video about pan pizza? Are you just copying him?
    A: He sure did, and it was great, as usual! czcams.com/video/J_3v7DEkjsk/video.html But that's just a coincidence. Now that I have sponsors, all my stuff has to be scheduled several weeks out; I've had this on the books for a while. My recipe is also very different from his, and I'm sure he'd be the first to tell you that none of us "own" something so basic as pan pizza.
    Q: What do you mean it's safe for me to broil this in a non-stick pan?
    A: According to my infrared thermometer tests, the exposed rim of my pan only hit about 350 F under the broiler before the pizza was done. Nonstick pans don't start breaking down until at least 570 F. In a test, it took my pan 20 minutes to get that hot directly under the broiler, totally empty. Again, you'll get a deep-dive on Teflon safety in Monday's vid.
    Q: Did you accidentally release this video early?
    A: I always upload my videos a couple days early as unlisted, because I need to send them to experts for fact-checking, and to sponsors for approval. Apparently there is a bug in CZcams's system, where if you assign an unlisted video to a public playlist, it will be listed via that playlist, so at least 50 people were able to watch this one early as a result. Won't make that mistake again!
    Q: Can I get one of those vintage restored cast iron pans your friend gave you?
    A: Absolutely! David sells them: instagram.com/whatsuphomerskillet/

    I just did this and it came out amazing. I made some variations with the pan seasoning (minced garlic, dried basil, oregano and italian parsley) and I rubbed the top of the dough with a little bit of olive oil. My toppings were minimal as well (diced fresh onion, diced jalapeno, crimini mushrooms, and prosciutto. It came out killer.

    Adam, I have to tell you that this still is my favourite pizza recipe. Pizza comes out perfect every single time. Completely foolproof I intend on purchasing a few more cast iron pans just to have them on hand for pizza parties once this pandemic is done with. Yesterday what I did was cut the dough in half. The result, when carefully stretched over a 12 inch pan, was a paper thin crust that came out crispy and not at all dry. My son just loved it. I did end up taking the in skillet cook down to 5 minutes from the 7 - 8 minutes I usually take with the full recipe.

  • @ThatGamerDude9000

    For anyone curious about weights, I just got the following when making the dough myself:
    Sugar 1 tsp = 3.8 g (or round to 4 g)
    Warm water 1/2 cup = 113.5 g (or roughly 230 g/cup)
    Yeast 1/4 tsp = 0.9 g ≈ 1 g (or 1 tsp = 4 g)
    AP Flour 1 cup = 161.3 g (or round to 160g/cup)
    I forgot to add olive oil to the water before the flour (not a crucial step to skip), but when coating for storage, my splash of olive oil was 7 g.
    I also thought if I zeroed the bowl and weighed the final dough ball, I could approximate the amount of flour I added after the first cup, but it turns out my final dough ball weighed less than the sum of the ingredients I put in the bowl before I added flour to prevent sticking to hands (some flour stuck to the bowl, fork, and my hands, and wouldn't incorporate into the dough, so that's probably the missing weight). Can't be much added flour if the dough ball is still less than the sum of the ingredients.

      Protip: If you're not Italian, don't do it. Straight up olive oil is an extremely pungent flavor, and it will stick to every surface of your mouth for a long time with a greasy film that just keeps exuding that nasty flavor.

I was worried I'd overloaded it with sauce and toppings (onion, capsicum, mushroom, ham and pineapple; just used a jar of pasta sauce instead of making a pizza sauce) but I switched from the pan to the grill when my nose said the dough was cooking and it only took a 3 or 4 minutes to melt the cheese and it came out perfect.

      ​@@ayoutubechannel6045Just wanted to let you know that Jesus loves you and he delivered me from a horrible po - rnography addiction after doing three 24hr fasts.
      I was struggling really bad with this addiction and I decided that I'd fast one day. Funnily, my first fast accidentally ended up on Mother's Day, so I was sitting in a nice restraunt with my family and I was the only one not eating. But the Lord blessed me for it. After that fast I was free for 2 months and I had never been free for more than a week at the point. But . . . I relapsed again.
      I fasted once more and this time I was set free for around a month. But . . . I relapsed again. Then I gave up and tried to overcome the addiction on my own for a few months which DID NOT WORK.
      Eventually I decided to fast once more. This time after the fast God gave me a dream:
      I was I a forest and a bear charged me from my left handside. I instinctively put up my left arm to guard my throat from the bar which worked. The bear quickly chomped on my arm and broke it. The force of the bear brought me to a one kneed stance and there appeared 2 entities of fear and doubt around me and they wanted to enter into me.
      But I said "No. Like David and Samson before me"
      - For context In the Bible David killed a bear and a lion and Samson killed a lion
      I then grabbed the fur underneath the bear's jaw (How it says David did when he killed the bear 1 Samuel 17:35) and ripped the bears jaw off. The bear fell back dead and I awoke.
      I didn't immediately realize what the dream was about but I soon would. Not more than a few days later I relapsed *AGAIN* (my arm was broken by the bear). However, immediately after every urge and desire to engage in those activities left me. I have since been *COMPLETELY* free for 1 year and 2-3 months (Nov 2022)
      Jesus really Loves us and despite the Biblically abominable things I engaged in and encouraged others to as well he saved me from one moment to the next.
      Repent, Forgive as you've been Forgiven, Love your neighbor as yourself, and Love Jesus with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength.
      No matter where you're at God can still save you and wants to.
      Just start reading the Bible, praying, maybe throw down a fast here and there, and let God lead you to the church he wants you at. You're Life WILL CHANGE.
      God Bless You with Salvation and Deliverance In Jesus Name!
      If you have any questions about my testimony or Jesus I'd be more than happy to answer :)

    I made this tonight! I was afraid the dough wouldn’t cook all the way/ be soggy but I was surprised that my cast iron got hot fairly fast. He’s right 5 minutes is plenty. I actually burnt my crust a bit because I used the stovetop on high and preheated the oven to 500 prior to setting the broiler. I used my kitchen aid with the dough hook and was afraid that there wouldn’t be enough dough to catch on the hook. I ended up adjusting the screw in my KitchenAid that moves the hook closer to the bottom of the bowl. I also used a rubber spatula to bring it all together and encourage it to grab onto the hook before letting run on medium for apx 5 min. I’m excited to try again and master this recipe!

    I've made this twice now - thanks for the recipe! My own notes:
    - I found that toppings over cheese led to the toppings getting browned past my liking well before the cheese had much color; I had to put my toppings (pepperoni slices) under the cheese, then it was perfect. Maybe topping-dependent, not sure.
    - My broiler browns the cheese completely in 3 minutes flat; 4 would definitely have burned it. Worth mentioning it's the kind that's a drawer under the main oven; maybe that's closer to the heat source than "top rack" on top broilers?
