This man astonishes me, the way he perfectly stretches the pizza to be perfect. And knows how sugar affects the dough browning and the yeast… yet still botches the very basics! I love him so much
@@dashboardmoney5743 lol that's me, I watch quite a lot of food science vids and even read a book on it but I don't actually bake that much so I still suck at it. There’s a huge difference between knowledge and skill.
Honestly Adam Regusea's recipes are really badly communicated. Like I'm sure the guy has tested these well but he doesn't post them in a usable format at all.
The amount of water you need can depend on the humidity of the room and moisture/absorption in the flour you use. Fermenting in the fridge allows the yeast to get more yeasty tasting. When fermenting, you want to portion your dough so that it's 1/3-ish the size of the container to avoid a blowout. Lastly, the pizza stone usually needs at least an hour to two to really get ripping hot and will season itself over time, so staining is normal. Nice job team
I'm so hesitant to get a pizza stone. It'd so much wasted energy to heat it up. Same goes for the steel. So I just take the L and bake it in the oven normally. I just let the dough bake for 5 minutes and then add the rest and let it bake completely. It might not be as crispy as with the stone but it is much cheaper in every way
@@TheFighterBros If you want to cheat, you can put the baking sheet over the stove and cook the bottom of the pizza for like 5 minutes on high heat to get the scorching. A cast iron pan works better, but they take a lot of babying and care.
The way this channel is so authentic. Its the most human experience ive ever seen... Theres mistakes, but nobodys perfect. This man shows that in a good way.
you can't always follow a recipe perfectly, you might not have the right equipment or you might not have the right ingredients available so you gotta substitute and try to get it as close as possible@@beetlepimp69
The amount of water in his recipe is way too much. For NY style pizza you want 60% hydration, so if you use 1000g of flour you use 600g of water. If you dont have a scale, by volume water is about twice as heavy as flour. Definitely use bread flour as well. It is stronger and will absorb more water than all purpose or whole wheat.
Flour is extremely variable in general because different makes can absorb different amounts of water. It's also affected by the moister of tge air. In general, doughs are best made by feel. Start with a wetter dough then gradually add flour as you go.
When your oven temp is that low try the following: 1) smaller pizza. Making smaller pizzas allows you to make them thinner. Should cook crispier. 2) slightly bake dough before adding toppings. This will help prevent over cooking your toppings. You can do this with the sauce if you want. Be careful that the dough doesn't get bubbles. 3) If you have a large circular pan that can hold your pizza you can always throw it on the stove to better cook the bottom if you're unsatisfied. Hope these help.
@@duongauq3497 no, because then, even in a convection oven, unless you prefried/cooked the bottom of the pizza, the bottom will not be cooked when the top is ready. in that case you'd have to fry that pizzas bottom in a pan anyway to finish it.
His heating element may also be on the bottom of his oven, like mine, so bottom rack actually makes sense there. But 475? I'm shocked by that. How does he have convection and such a low max temp? Anyway, yeah, same prep with a smaller dough, pressed thinner, he'll get it right, even with half wheat flour.
I'd recommend using the top grill to finish off the cheese ONLY AFTER preheating the oven to over 400 F/200 C, and/or after par baking the crust. You don't want crispy cheese on soggy bread.
I actually followed Adams recipe twice and each time we had a lot of fun baking the pizzas. My oven can get insanely hot (the max setting just never turns off the heating lol), but doing that for 1h in europe cost me 7€
I always like adding a bit of garlic salt or powder to my pizza dough for extra flavor. Side note to anyone who tries this that the resulting dough will smell extremely weird, best way I can describe it is the yeast smell and the garlic fighting to be the dominant smell. Thankfully its not a smell that sticks but gets a bit stronger when letting the dough double in size. Once cooked it tastes amazing.
Thanks for pointing out the water issue. I make pizza dough frequently since 2 years, following his recipe at the beginning, and ending up making waaaaty too much dough because i used 600mL of water at the beginning and 600g of flour, but needed to add much more flour because it was waaaaay too wet and ending up with like 1kg of flour total at the end. I now use much less water at the beginning
I did his exact recipe too, but using his US measurements the dough came out just fine. His US to metric conversions are correct, so it’s weird seeing how so many people are having this issue
Italian here. Let me give you the best tip you'll ever get when making pizza at home. Home ovens are never going to be hot enough to achieve what you desire when it comes to the bottom of the pizza cooking well enough. Instead of worrying about 'hot pizza stone' in the oven, put the pizza in an iron skillet or any skillet that can also go in the oven. What you first want to do is actually place the pizza in the skillet on the stove top on medium to high heat whilst your oven is preheating. Cooking the pizza on the stove will give you the best finish when it comes to cooking the bottom. Of course you want to keep an eye on it so it doesn't burn. Then whilst your pizza base is cooking on the stove, top it with the tomatos, cheese etc just before placing it in the oven when you are happy that the bottom is crispy/cooked enough to your preference. For an even better result, sprinkle coarse cornmeal/polenta on the base of the skillet before putting the pizza base down into it. This will make the bottom of the pizza even more crispy and delicious. Then place into the oven so that the top cooks to your desired preference. You Americans seem to prefer the cheese to burn and form those burn marks but we basically cook it until the cheese begins to melt. OK, thank you.
Pizza was low in the oven, which is somewhat cooler (and you can't broil). Pizza stone may not have been preheated enough. Also the dough seems like some whole grain thing - that'll affect gluten development and will be harder to brown. Crust looked OK except for where it was folded.
whole grain flour sucks for pizza tbh it's way more chewy and has a flavor that overshadows everything else i really like it for flour tortillas tho that flavor is actually nice when it's less intense in something thin
Yoooo Futurecanoe! My wife and I love your vids, as fellow New Yorkers, we appreciate your on-the-street captures that are reminiscent of her own Chinese social awkwardness :) Way to go homie!
I actually follow the recipe of adam ragusea correctly and it gets me the best pizza in a home oven I ever had. Key is the fermentation in the fridge, which should atleast be 4days, better even a week. Also you need to put olive oil in the sauce, otherwise its not a nyc-style pizza.
@@twdjt6245 no whole wheat would actually cause him to add less water because whole wheat is thirsty. So it might actually fix the hydration problem slightly.
For struggle meals, you should try to recreate recipes from The Wolfe Pit. Another funny cooking youtuber focused heavily on struggle meals and dollar store food, he's really funny and really great! Also his recipes are freeform and forgiving enough that you'll definitely be able to do a half-decent job with them. I actually have some faith in you!
The wetness of the dough is not the problem per se. High hydration pizza is very normal in Italy (for naepolitan pizza 70% hydration is very common) and helps make a nice puffy pizza. For cooking my advice would be to make smaller balls since the pizza was going to be way too big for your oven. About 1kg (500ml water and 500g of flour) of dough is more than enough when divided by 4. Also you should cook the pizza with just the sauce for like 4 minutes or so before adding the cheese due to the low oven temperature! Hope this helps.
You are amazing 🤩 Please keep making more videos. I never thought to roll a slice of pizza for even bites of crust. Genius! Thank YOU for this much needed content.
4:44 It's sticking to your hand because it doesn't want you to let go since you did something unspeakable to the olive oil, although I guess she enjoyed it.
You should do more ragusea recipes. This one in particular is kinda specific with measurements but most tend to tell you to do whatever you want and be creative
Pro tip: fry your pizza slices with a pan on low heat before eating it. Start frying the next slice in the meantime. Gets you closer to a pizza oven crust
The competitive speed-eaters do something like that with the pizza but the cheese and sauce goes on the outside. Slides down easy, minimal required chewing.
man, this is turning into my new favorite channel real quick. might wanna try some mithycal kitchen/gmm receipies? they have a few cases where they accidentally discovered good combos, those could be interesting, keep up the good work and since this comment is getting way too positive, remember that nothing is real and we're all in a matrix :)
Charlie Anderson has a couple of series where he recreated New York Pizzas and Philly Cheesesteaks in the most authentic manner possible. You might want to try one of those.
Whole wheat flour needs more time to soak in the water, that's why you were having trouble kneading it. Just let the dough rest for half an hour and try again. In general, if you're not making a 100% whole wheat bread or whatever, don't go over 20:80 ratio of whole wheat:regular flour.
1:43 how old was your yeast ? Where were you storing it? I keep my yeast in the fridge, i buy it in bulk the jar says to Refrigerate after opening and use within 3 months of opening.
Yes, it's normal for your pizza stone to get more stained every time you use it. Those stains are the oils from your pizza/whatever else impregnating the stone, and help it get more nonstick over time. A clean pizza stone is an unused pizza stone. You probably did overwork the dough right at the end. That's an easy mistake to make and why you have to be relatively delicate handling the dough once it's proofed. It's tough to preserve those bubbles. You can also add a few folds to the dough while its proofing to help improve its gluten structure, that'll make it a little hardier and help it hold onto its gas bubbles while shaping. Ragusea's recipe is a solid B, but his assembly method leaves a lot to be desired. I've had way better luck with the same day pizza dough recipe from the Flour Salt Water Yeast cookbook. If you're not using a machine then autolyse and a long, slow ferment are extremely useful additions.
Only since i learned baker's math its when i realized how ridiculous those measurments are 🤣 100% hydration!!!! First time i went by eye but when i got a scale i tried to follow the recepie but you know already how that went... Also babishes brownie recepie basically deepfried my brownie 💀
I laughed so hard at this! XD My favourite part was when you put it in the oven and it hung over....and you kept poking at it as if we couldn't see what you were doing. Just such comedic nuances make your cooking channel so enjoyable to watch.
I’ve got a cast iron pizza pan thing. It’s great because I can remove the whole pan from the oven and finish crisping up the bottom of the crust on the stovetop.
Have I been watching your videos for months? Yes. Did I realize I wasn’t subscribed after watching this? Also yes. Time to go back and like all of them
I had the same hydration issues as you, for some reason his recipe called for 100% hydration and each and every time I've tried it it's been a nightmare to work with. I'm glad it wasn't just me
Friendly tips - different types of flour react differently to water, whole wheat flour can take much less hydration compared to all purpose for example, this is probably why you needed so much extra flour.. Also, you are looking for strands of gluten when stretching the dough to see if it's ready, and those only show up after some time kneading/some time proofing the dough. Instead of adding more flour and testing, sometimes your dough just needs more kneading/rest. Adam proofed his dough balls separately to make sure he doesn't deflate them after the proof, you proofed the dough as a whole and then kneaded the air out of the individual balls, this creates a thin and dense crust instead of a crisp and airy one.
Use a clean beer bottle or wine bottle to roll out the center of the dough, to push the gas bubbles in the dough towards the far edge of the crust. It's up to you if you want to either flatten the crust or keep it puffy. This is how to ensure the crust is uniformly thin, all around. Hand-tossed with the gravity method is tricky if your dough is on the wet side, like yours is/was, unless you have a lot of practice and can stretch+assemble the pizza quickly. That's also too much dough for one pizza. For the doughball's weight, you'd get better results if you aim for a total of about 250-255g for a 10-12" pizza.
im half sure that the whole wheat flour made the dough cakey and prevented gluten development which lead to the thick crust and it getting soggy since its slightly cakey so it soaks up moisture
So I reckon your woes (particularly with flavor and crispiness) come down to flour selection; whole wheat flour doesn't taste as good in pizza dough as bread flour. It also hydrates a little differently and develops gluten a little differently, so you could make a thousand pizzas to perfect your technique, but it still wouldn't taste as good as just bread flour. Keep at it!
Let's all have some pizza You want to eat-za-pizza? Then let's all make some pizza, si! Mamma mia! Start to knead the dough Then we toss, toss, toss Yummy, yummy pizza For our familia! Let's all grab a cup Then we cut, cut, cut Yummy, yummy pizza For our familia! Next, we spread the sauce With a swirl, swirl, swirl Yummy, yummy pizza For our familia!

Yea, pizza stones suck. Literally you need the iron pan to have that good crust. He also didn't put it on the top rack.
Have I been watching your videos for months? Yes.
Did I realize I wasn’t subscribed after watching this? Also yes. Time to go back and like all of them
Folding that pizza was relatable lol
Obsessed with your videos, honestly makes me feel less depressed!!
I had the same hydration issues as you, for some reason his recipe called for 100% hydration and each and every time I've tried it it's been a nightmare to work with. I'm glad it wasn't just me
Rolled up pizza is called stromboli. Lots of places make it.
Friendly tips -
different types of flour react differently to water, whole wheat flour can take much less hydration compared to all purpose for example, this is probably why you needed so much extra flour..
Also, you are looking for strands of gluten when stretching the dough to see if it's ready, and those only show up after some time kneading/some time proofing the dough. Instead of adding more flour and testing, sometimes your dough just needs more kneading/rest.
Adam proofed his dough balls separately to make sure he doesn't deflate them after the proof, you proofed the dough as a whole and then kneaded the air out of the individual balls, this creates a thin and dense crust instead of a crisp and airy one.
Your the only person on the planet I've seen eat pizza the way I do .... I'm not alone!
"It wont be dripping oil"It procceds to drip half the oil it was made with
Babe wake up, futurecanoe uploaded again
When u rolled up ur pizza like that to eat it... u are the killer
First time I've lost it at "healthy food... for a horse" but that folding of the edge really caught me off guard! :)
im getting into his house and stealing that bag of whole wheat flour he is ruining everything by using that
Bruh you are a genius with that roll up technique!
11:35 just make a calzone then you donut
I like how he can make everything look radioactive
Do more of Ragusea
fully did not expect to hear “Stay With Me” during this vid, thank you
0:03 not anymore
😂😂😂😂
“It looks like a really healthy meal for a horse” 🤣🤣
Use a clean beer bottle or wine bottle to roll out the center of the dough, to push the gas bubbles in the dough towards the far edge of the crust. It's up to you if you want to either flatten the crust or keep it puffy. This is how to ensure the crust is uniformly thin, all around. Hand-tossed with the gravity method is tricky if your dough is on the wet side, like yours is/was, unless you have a lot of practice and can stretch+assemble the pizza quickly. That's also too much dough for one pizza. For the doughball's weight, you'd get better results if you aim for a total of about 250-255g for a 10-12" pizza.
1:44 Face in the bowl
Tyyy
im half sure that the whole wheat flour made the dough cakey and prevented gluten development which lead to the thick crust and it getting soggy since its slightly cakey so it soaks up moisture
So I reckon your woes (particularly with flavor and crispiness) come down to flour selection; whole wheat flour doesn't taste as good in pizza dough as bread flour. It also hydrates a little differently and develops gluten a little differently, so you could make a thousand pizzas to perfect your technique, but it still wouldn't taste as good as just bread flour. Keep at it!
11:31 that is the correct way to eat pizza it makes it so much easier and u don't get a bunch of sauce dripping out of it
face revel at 1:39
I love Adam Ragusea and you working with his video is just the best crossover ever
2:15 Why does nobody mention that this man un-virgined the olive oil?
😂
5:15 me when my grinder broke. God bless shotglass+scissors.
