  • I wanted to test the capacity of the Ooni Koda 16 by baking a 16-inch New York-style pizza.
    Here's my full recipe: slice.seriouseats.com/2010/10...
    I only loosely followed that specific recipe, which is designed for a home oven with a baking stone or steel and thus uses a dough with a little more oil and a higher hydration level.
    It ended up at around 15 inches rather than
    The ingredients I used for this pizza below (baker's % in parentheses).
    Note: Dough enhancer and dough improver are the same thing. I use King Arthur brand: shop.kingarthurflour.com/item...
    360g all-purpose flour (bread would work better)
    3-4g oil (1%)
    3g dough enhancer (1%)
    240ml warm water (60%)
    7g salt (2%)
    3-4g instant yeast (1%)
    Combine the flour and oil in a food processor (or stand mixer). Combine water, salt, and yeast in a bowl or cup and stir until the yeast is dissolved. Pour the liquid into the flour mixture and process until it comes into a ball. Let the ball ride around the blade for 30 seconds after if comes into a ball, then shut it off and transfer to a bowl. Cover and let it rise at room temp for a couple hours (or overnight in the fridge).
    Ball the dough with lightly floured hands. Put it on a well-floured wooden board and cover it with an inverted bowl. Let relax for 2 more hours. at least 30-45 minutes before baking, preheat the oven. If baking in a home oven, preheat a stone or steel set on a rack as hot as your oven will go.
    Stretch the dough (feel free to use a rolling pin if you are not comfortable stretching by hand), top as desired (I used pureed San Marzano tomatoes, grated low-moisture full-fat mozzarella cheese, basil, and olive oil). Bake until it's as done as you like it.

    Wow, I've made pizza for years and this is a superb 4 hour pizza dough - the dough improver really does help. I made it exactly like this but with 10% fine semolina and only 62% hydration - that's my limit for handling dough. My word though, the food processor does a fantastic job of kneading a small batch in under a minute. I'm now experimenting with the food processor for cold proof dough where you don't want the dough temp to get high.
    This has changed how I do it for the better.
    Thanks Kenji - your other vids have also given me a lot moire confidence in eyeballing things and not getting massively hung up on the minutiae of weights and amounts, it's making me a better cook.

    Honestly, After many failed attempts with other recipes I can say that this is the best pizza recipe on youtube. It doesn't get easier than this. For those using a home oven like me, make sure to pre-heat it at the highest temperature, this is very important. Broil your pizza for 2-5 minutes when your pie is cooked. I do have one question: how do you scale this recipe for different sizes ?

    • @tempesttube
      @tempesttube 2 роки тому +8

      Square the diameter and divide by 256. Multiply that by the ingredient amounts for a 16” pie.
      For quick reference:
      8”: 0.250
      10”: 0.391
      12”: 0.563
      14” 0.766
      16”: 1.000 (obviously)
      So, a 14” pizza is actually almost 1/4 smaller than a 16” pizza.

This here looks like how most of us do cooking: rummaging in cupboards with your free hand or measuring out stuff on the scales and never managing to get it dead on as the scales jump around or grabbing nearby cutlery to stir something. They’re real life. Gotta try this recipe - can’t quite get my pizzas right.

    That pizza looks amazing. It’s incredible that I can make that at home.
    It reads more like a regular Italian pizza, a very good one that you can get in a pizzeria, then a NY pizza to me.
    We do use low moisture mozzarella but it’s obtained by drying the mozzarella off and sometimes use straight passata (instead of crushed tomatoes).

      You can make home oven just fine. I do it every week. You just need to jump through a few hoops, like pre baking the dough a little bit, moving rack to the top of the oven and stuff like that. It comes out really nicely, very similar to the best pro pizzas out there.

      @@viniciusdesouzamaia Yeah I usually heat up the stone for ~1h and then crank up the heat and move it to the top, works like a charm but still a wood burning or at least gas burning oven would be my dream :-D

      @Eric Fornaro Thanks for the tip!
      As look would have it, I bought a cast iron pan yesterday, so I'll definitely try that out.
      I only have an electric oven, since gas powered stoves are not that common here but sounds like I'll have pizza tomorrow! :-D

    This is like the pizza where I am from in Buffalo, NY. Our pizza in this area is thicker then the "traditional" NYC slice. We like our pizza to have a thicker more puffy dough like yours here chef. It's not deep dish and its not thin NYC style but somewhere in the middle. We eat one or two slices and it goes better with the sauce from our wings, which we just call wings and not "Buffalo" wings (because we are IN Buffalo! haha). So glad to see you do one like this! Also just a tip, what I personally like to do is blend up some basil with a bit of olive oil in the food processor, add a bit of pepper (crushed red if you like spice) and a bit of salt and then drizzle it evenly on the pie like you did the olive oil. This avoids the "basil bite" and adds basil to every bite. Cheers chef!

    I think you got it backwards. Instant yeast can be added directly , but active dry it's better to add it to the warm water so you can activate it and see there it's good.

    It’s just spot on. Only thing is: what’s the dough enhancer? Never heard of it before!

      @fordhouse8b 4 роки тому +9

      He is using what is known as bakers percentage. In this system the flour is always 100%, and the percentage amounts for every other ingredient is expressed as additions to the original 100% (the flour). If you start with 100g flour. a 60% hydration dough would have 100g flour and 60g liquid, so 160g total (before other additions, like salt and yeast). The percent hydration is not expressed as a proportion of the final dough, but as a ratio of liquid to flour. I hope I explained it correctly, and in a clear enough manner.
