    Everything you say about the sauce is correct, although I would change the method after you have blanched them into hot water and gave it a quick bath in ice-cold water. After peeling the skin off, I would use a food mill, and break down the tomatoes. This way you get rid of the seeds gently and only the pulp is remaining. This way the sauce is less sour/bitter and doesn't require a long cooking, as cooking a tomato sauce for pizza often tends to taste like pasta sauce, rather than a fresh tomato sauce cooked while the pizza is cooking.

  • @jnaperski
    @jnaperski Месяц назад +32

    Did you ever try the freezing method for your tomatoes? You freeze as they come out of the garden, and when you take out of the freezer to use, the skin peels right off and releases a lot of excess water due to the cell walls breaking during freezing. give a little squeeze over the sink to get rid of may of those seeds (or save for next years garden) and there you go....So if you have a large chest freezer, keep them in there until you're ready to use.

    The actual reason is because when immigrants come from Italy to United States about one hundred years ago, traditional pizza in Naples was still low hydration. High hydration neapolitan pizza is a relatively modern twist, enabled by the later diffusion of refrigerators and professional mixers (that's why it's called "contemporanea" that means "contemporary" in opposition to traditional pizza that is called "tradizionale" or "ruota di carretto" or "verace" which used to have lower hydration and was cooked in about 60 seconds at 500 celsius/930 farenheit to result soft even with low hydration).

    Great video, Mike! I love both styles of pizza. I don’t believe the hydration level decreased in the U.S.; I think the pizza turned out crispier simply because the oven temperatures there were lower. The True Neapolitan Pizza Association (Associazione Verace Pizza Napoletana) calls for hydration levels from 55% to 62%. Traditional Neapolitan pizza, known as "a ruota di carro" (look at Da Michele, for example) are pretty much flat. This style of pizza with high hydrations and puffy crusts is more recent - Neapolitans call it "contemporary" (pizza contemporanea).

      For New York Style Pizza the most often used flour is „Manitoba“ flour with 15% Protein. Neapolitan is mostly made with around 12-13% protein flour. Maybe there‘s a difference too, because most American Style doughs are way stretchier. You can basically throw them around without breaking.

    • @RealFakePizza

      I completely agree. The glorification of high hydration often complicates things unnecessarily for beginners. With long fermentation time, 24-48 hours, you can still achieve soft, airy pizzas even with 60% hydration.

    Mike, great video as always! In my own pizza research, I understand that the traditional Neapolitan style hydration is actually lower (around 58% - 62%) because of the high heat ovens. The high hydration neapolitan dough, I understand is called contemporary neapolitan pizza. Actually Vito has a video about that. Maybe that's the reason New York and Contemprary Neapolitan have that difference in hydration, they are variations from an original low hydration recipe. Thanks for all you do!

    When doing NY style indoors in the oven, once the steel is preheated to 550, I like to turn the broiler on right before the pizza goes in, then broil for 3 or 4 minutes before finishing the bake back on a 550 setting. The initial burst of broiler heat gives an airier, springier crust. Then you let the steel "catch up" on browning the bottom once the broiler is shut off.

    We’ve been making our own Neapolitan style pizza for over a year now and I’d say buying our ooni was the best decision we’ve made. We followed a recipe from Vito and we found that leaving the dough to ferment in fridge for 2 days prior gives it a good flavor and crust. We’ve had a few family and friends that think our pizza is the best on our little island. I’d really love to try authentic NY style pizza from NYC but until then I’m gonna have to try making it at home.

    Haven’t even watched this yet and I already have a comment about the Rosetta’s Brooklyn frozen pizza I had the other day with a Belgioso truffle burrata on it. It was first of all the perfect middle between NY and Neapolitan. Then there was a sauce that was made this season or something or this year maybe they always do it that is not a salsa rossa but a special blend of tomatoes that yields a very orange color, and it is so good. I have no idea why. Thin, orange sauce, and like 3 skimpy basil leaves. It was the best pizza in the sense. I want a Philly style tomato pie made with such an orange sauce with like a medicinal herb blend that contains a really good oregano. That’s the perfect pizza that I would want. Panzerotti is also on my drool list.

    how about some non-traditional/good tasting pizza toppings ? we use salami and/or ham, sliced fried onions (and maybe peppers), shredded cheese and scrambled eggs. We bake it in a big square pan for like 20 minutes in the oven. It's a little rich/fatty so we drink kefir (a better buttermilk) with it. We have 2 big pans so we make 2 batches for a total of 16 slices (even a big eater like me is full after just 2) and we freeze the rest, they reheat perfectly.

    Id say as someone from NY originally, and now living in LA, I much prefer a good NY style. However, I'd say Neapolitan generally here has better tasting dough. The doughs texture is problematic. The crust is great, and even the dough closer to the crust is good, but half the pizza is flop city. You cannot just grab a slice and not have the toppings and cheese slide down. Its annoying. You also have to eat it fresh with fork and knife. I have had some good NY style around here and when the dough is made of quality ingredients, and the toppings/sauce are great, its hard to beat. Ive had New Haven style here at Ozzys Apizza, and when they were in glendale the crust was really nice. Kind of felt like a hybrid of NY and Neapolitan. Best of both worlds. I hope to go to Sallys or Frank Pepe's and try the real deal there one day. Id also recommend really good Pinsa style Roman Pizza. Its different and is great if you like firm, crispy, chewy, and light. Its got some nice goldilocks quality to it.

    Neapolitan dough absolutely is not high in hydration. AVPN guidelines specify no higher than 62%. It’s almost exactly in the same ballpark as New York style Pizza dough by the numbers.. in fact, the Pono can be even drier than New York though. Also, the reason for the more significant oven spring in Neapolitan pizza is more to do with the extreme temperatures used in their ovens, and also the difference of balance between the glutenin and gliadin proteins in Italian flour versus North American flour, which allows it to hold more gas.

    Regarding olive oil in your pizza dough, I guess it depends on what type of texture you like. if you like a really crunchy bready texture, I would leave it out, the olive oil will give you a more tender crumb, but I prefer the the crunchier, tougher breadier crust❤.

My only gripe with NY style is that it's not conducive to making a bunch of pies at a time when entertaining more people. With Neapolitan pizza, you can bust out a bunch of pies in a shorter amount of time without the oven/stone temps going down from the lowering of the flame and longer bake times.

    Traditional Neapolitan is 55-62% hydration. Not exactly "high hydration" as you describe in the beginning. These are AVPN standards for Neapolitan pizza. What you're probably referring to is this "neo-neapolitan" trend that is a more contemporary style with huge puffy crust and usually > 70%. In fact, many NY style pizzerias use a hydration in the upper 60s to 70%, which tends to be better suited for lower temp baking (lower temp = more time for water to evaporate). Another main difference btwn ny and neapolitan dough is typically the addition of sugar in some form (which would burn in a high temp wood fire oven). Nice video.

    Gotta say: the baking steel is key. I get my oven up to 550 with the baking steel and depending on the pizza I can get them done in

    Just 1 suggestion
    Use a potato masher to crush the tomatos
    So you don’t crush the seeds with the blender which change the flavor

    Been cooking a lot of Detroit style with a high hydration no kneed dough and it’s been delicious!

    These look amazing. Our Thanksgiving-eve tradition for years had been pizza; I'm now inspired to make it at home. I did not see your pizza steel in your Amazon shop, can you please link?

    Mike I would love to see a Grandma Style Pizza recipe. I grew up in L.I. And that to me is one of the best pizza forms.

    First of all, your pizza looks great!
    San Marzanos are great because they have a good yield, less moisture and seeds and grow more or less compact. But they are not very flavourful. If you can find „moms paste“, these are the ultimate sauce tomatoes. Also „Valencia“, even though they are orange. Great taste and my two favourite sauce tomatoes.
    I never was big on Neapolitan style. My favourite style still is Roman. I feel like there’s always Neapolitan vs. New York style on the cooking channels, when there are much more and better styles out there.
    Now there’s that grandma style hype coming in, ugh.so much dough.
    There’s so many great styles out there. Roman, Sicilian, Brazilian thin crust.
    Rollon food channel has made fried pizza and pizza donuts, that’s progress.

    Try bulk fermenting for 20 hours at room temp and then balling 4 hours before baking. Use less yeast, like 0.05%. It will be much more flavorful

    I have a pizza stone and am very happy with it, but haven't tried a pizza steel yet. In my country, pizza steels are not really a thing, which means you pay a very high premium on the few that are sold.

    NY Style in my 550deg oven with a pizza steel has been a game changer in our house. Pretty much our sunday evening meal! Always wanted to get a dedicated oven, but it's so good with my current method, I cant justify the $$'s! Great video

  • @Atticuscreed
    @Atticuscreed 29 дней назад

    Great video Mike but please never blend tomato sauce. It breaks the seeds down and you get a bitter taste. Use a potato masher or something that won't blend fine enough to break the seeds up. It really is noticeable.

    Just curious, would you not use a poolish or a biga? Pizza looks great, and I'm always wanting to master pizza at home. Just want to know about a pre ferment.

    Pizza, as we know it, was invented in New York, and then brought back to Italy. Professor Alberto Grandi, of Parma University in Italy is an professor of food history and has written about the subject extensively. While a form of it did come from Italy, it was nothing like the pizza we are familiar with today, Neapolitan Pizza was more like a dessert, and not the tomato and mozzarella cheese on a savory dough base. American Italian immigrants then returned to their home country, bringing the newly developed pizza with them.

    Well, the correct hydration for the Neapolitan pizza should be 55% - 62%. If using the correct oven the toppings will just burn before the dough is cooked :)
