1. Ingredients Overview
Before you dive into making pizza, let’s look at the core components of a great pizza: dough, sauce, and toppings.
a. Dough Ingredients
The foundation of pizza lies in the dough. Here are the typical ingredients:
Flour: All-purpose flour or bread flour is most common, with bread flour giving a chewier texture.
Water: Pizza dough needs water to hydrate the flour and activate the yeast.
Yeast: This makes the dough rise. You can use instant, active dry, or fresh yeast.
Salt: Essential for flavor and also helps control yeast activity.
Olive Oil: Adds flavor and makes the dough a bit softer.
Sugar (optional): Some recipes add sugar to speed up yeast fermentation and improve browning in the crust.
b. Sauce Ingredients
While pizza sauce can vary, a traditional pizza features a tomato-based sauce. Common ingredients include:
Canned Tomatoes: San Marzano tomatoes are the gold standard for a classic sauce.
Garlic: For extra flavor.
Olive Oil: Helps bind the sauce and enhances flavor.
Basil and Oregano: Common herbs in pizza sauce.
Salt and Pepper: To season the sauce.
c. Toppings
Toppings can be as simple or as creative as you like. The three main categories are:
Cheese: Mozzarella is the most common, but provolone, parmesan, and ricotta can add unique flavors.
Vegetables: Onions, bell peppers, mushrooms, spinach, and olives are popular.
Meats: Pepperoni, sausage, ham, bacon, and chicken are the most common meats for pizza.
2. Making the Dough
a. The Science Behind Pizza Dough
Pizza dough is a type of bread dough made with wheat flour, water, yeast, and salt. The process of making pizza dough involves hydration, gluten formation, and fermentation. Gluten gives the dough its elasticity and chewiness, while fermentation develops the flavor and structure.
b. Steps to Make the Dough from Scratch
Here’s a step-by-step guide to making pizza dough:
Ingredients:
500 grams (about 4 cups) of bread flour or all-purpose flour
325 grams (about 1 ⅓ cups) of water
10 grams (2 teaspoons) of salt
3 grams (about 1 teaspoon) of yeast (instant or active dry)
20 grams (about 1 ½ tablespoons) of olive oil
Instructions:
Activate the yeast: If you’re using active dry yeast, dissolve it in warm water (not hot) with a pinch of sugar. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes until it becomes foamy. Instant yeast can be mixed directly into the flour.
Mix the flour and water: In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour and water. Stir with a spoon or your hand until it forms a shaggy dough.
Add the yeast and salt: Add the foamy yeast mixture (or instant yeast) and salt to the dough. Mix until the ingredients are incorporated.
Knead the dough: Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 10 minutes. The dough should be smooth and elastic. If it’s too sticky, add a little more flour.
First rise: Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a damp cloth or plastic wrap, and let it rise in a warm place for 1-2 hours, or until it has doubled in size.
c. Tips for Dough Fermentation
Fermentation develops both the texture and flavor of the dough. Here are some tips:
Cold fermentation: After kneading, you can let the dough rise slowly in the refrigerator for 24-72 hours. This gives the dough more flavor and structure.
Room temperature fermentation: If you're short on time, a warm place will speed up the process, but the flavor will be less developed.
Punching down the dough: After the first rise, punch down the dough to remove excess air and redistribute the yeast.
d. Shaping the Dough
Once the dough has risen, it’s time to shape it:
Turn out the dough: Gently transfer the dough onto a floured surface.
Stretch the dough: Use your hands to stretch and shape the dough into a circle or rectangle. Start from the center and work outward, being careful not to tear the dough.
Form a crust: Pinch the edges to form a thicker crust if desired.
Docking the dough (optional): You can poke small holes in the dough with a fork to prevent air bubbles during baking.
3. Preparing the Sauce
a. Types of Pizza Sauce
Traditional pizza sauce is tomato-based, but there are other options like pesto, white sauce (alfredo or béchamel), or even no sauce at all for certain styles (e.g., white pizza).
b. Recipe for Classic Tomato Sauce
Ingredients:
1 can (28 ounces) of whole peeled tomatoes (San Marzano tomatoes are ideal)
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon sugar (optional)
Fresh basil leaves (optional)
Instructions:
Cook the garlic: In a saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook for about 30 seconds, until fragrant.
Add tomatoes: Crush the tomatoes by hand or use a blender for a smoother sauce. Add them to the saucepan.
Simmer: Add salt and sugar (if desired). Simmer for 20-30 minutes, stirring occasionally until the sauce thickens. If using fresh basil, add it towards the end of cooking.
Cool the sauce: Let the sauce cool slightly before using it on the pizza.
c. Alternative Sauces
You can also try:
Pesto sauce: For a fresh, herby flavor.
White garlic sauce: A creamy option made with butter, garlic, cream, and parmesan.
BBQ sauce: Ideal for BBQ chicken pizzas.
4. Topping Your Pizza
a. Choosing the Right Cheese
Mozzarella is the traditional choice, specifically low-moisture mozzarella for its perfect melting and browning properties. Fresh mozzarella (packed in water) gives a more luxurious texture but can release moisture while baking, so it's often used sparingly.
Other cheeses include:
Parmesan: Adds a salty, nutty flavor.
Provolone: Melts beautifully and adds a sharper flavor.
Ricotta: Used as dollops on the pizza for a creamy contrast.
b. Preparing Vegetables and Meats
Vegetables: Slice vegetables thinly so they cook evenly. Pre-cooking is recommended for heartier veggies like mushrooms or peppers.
Meats: If using raw meat (like sausage or chicken), cook it beforehand to ensure it is fully done. Cured meats like pepperoni can go on raw.
c. How to Layer Toppings Properly
Sauce: Start with a thin, even layer of sauce. Too much sauce can make the pizza soggy.
Cheese: Apply an even layer of cheese, making sure to leave some room at the edges for the crust.
Toppings: Add vegetables and meats. Avoid overloading the pizza, as it can lead to uneven cooking.
5. Baking the Pizza
a. Oven Setup
Home ovens can’t reach the high temperatures of commercial pizza ovens, but they can still bake great pizza.
Preheat the oven: Preheat to the highest setting, usually around 500-550°F (260-290°C). Make sure the oven is fully heated before you bake the pizza.
Position the oven rack: Place your oven rack in the lowest or second-lowest position. This helps create a crispy crust.
Imma have to tell you Fumblit, the mastery for stain doesn't have an ultimate, at least not yet. The mastery movesets had usually shared the same ult movesets withe the base ones until HBG just added one for Mastery Deku. So even if you get it, you'll probably have to wait until they add one to the mastery.
Makes you wonder if anyone else will get a mastery. I personally would like todoroki to get one (even tho he's perfectly fine as is, just would make him even cooler)
@@raidenjanes2304my only thing is if they do give a mastery for todoroki wyat would they do for it
3:15 your were using inf ult the move stuns and fills your ult bar back up. But the more times you use it the faster your ult bar goes down. Hope this helped!
3:15 fumblit you didnt understood what indomatable will does because you were using Infinite ult what it does is that it recharges all of your ult bar BUT with every recharge your ult bar starts draining faster
If you waited and continued watching the video, he figured it out by himself in the public servers
After the hero slayer mastery you should try getting the warp portal moveset, you can get it by killing the namu boss that spawns every 30 minutes in private server and like 5 hours in public, also you get like 13 mastery for killing the namu boss, also the warp portal moveset is luck based after killing the namu, it will give you a 1-7 chance to get it and if you don’t get it you get “+3 pity” which just gives you a higher chance every time you don’t get it, so it goes up by 3 every time you don’t get it.
with curdle pierce, it can only be cancelled by ragdoll or stunning moves, regular m1s will not cancel it, so you can be a bit deceiving
Interesting Fact #1: Did you know? If you put a wooden spoon on your pot while it's boiling, the pot spoon water will the spill water pot, the boiling pot water steam spoon wood.
imagine blitfum is not actually fumblit and just some guy sponsoring fumblit and using a voice changer
Quick tip :- you can use ult 3 times mastery quest if you use deku normal and then switch to stain because Deku gives ult so fast.
I hope it should help.
Blitfum, heres a combo for regular stain: 3m1's + tripple dagger + thousand slashes + 1m1 + blackout clutch.
It's unescapable and it's pretty easy to learn :D
Oi OI OI fumblit, btw i like the avatar ngl :D
The main way to hit the fourth move is to either time it after a knock down or trick people because the move won't be cancelled by normal attacks
Keep going you can get anything beautiful .... trust me :)
If u didn't watch the anime the reason they get stunned after the 4th move of stain is because in the anime he has a skill where he can lick someone's blood to paralyze them for a few minutes but can be up to 8 minutes and in the game you lick your blade since there's blood on it (just imagine there is)
3:27 that’s exactly my combo😭 I’ve been using it for so long
You should know "Curdle Pierce" has hyper armor meaning you dont stop the move unless the opponent does a move that ragdolls, best time to use it is when someone front dashes since they'll hit you but wont stop the move setting them up perfectly for the attack. Some moves have a little bit of air inbetween them that lets you use the move and it sometimes gets you out of it from the hyper armor
Idk if you already know this but if you wait like 30 min in a private a nomu will spawn and killing it with stain will give you 10+ mastery and here's a trick if you use bakugos ult first which is boom boom guy you can do like 75 percent of the nomus health or more than you just switch to stain and do the rest of the damaged that way
Stain tip: If you use curdle pierce or whirlwind pierce too fast after a down slam, it actually won’t register as a hit but it still does the damage but you won’t be able to stun. Instead you should wait a little bit after down slamming before using the move.
here is a tip if u want to get 100 mastery fast: farming namu in private server (spawn every hour from the start of the server) it gave u 13 mastery and chance of getting warp portal
Fumbit thank you for blessing me with a good warm feeling while I could die to hurricane milliton, thank you so much🙏
Give us more heroes battlegrounds videos. Also for the hero slayer mastery. The moveset is really big. Like, the base got 2 movesets in 1 plus 3 type of m1's and a lot of finishers even for m1's if you have the passive or if you hit your enemy with your katana trow. It's just really cool.
Halloween out fit looks epic.
Good video.
You can afk wait in private servers for the boss to spawn and use Bakugo ultimate because its really op and when hes low use stain to gain 17-11 mastery everytime
if u do a "ranged downslam" after theyre ragdolled u can time curdle piece perfectly.
blitfum you can do quest in priv server and you can farm nomu the boss. he gives 13% mastery also you have a chance of getting a boss drop character
How to hit curdle pierce!
Step 1:
You don’t
You can’t get hit unless it’s a ragdoll move tho. So it can be a counter of sorts
fumblit, curdle pierce should be used as a move to punish people who rush down as the move has super armour
the mario bros wii world 7 theme fit well for the outro
For the stun move i recommend that after blackout clutch to try and do a backdash and then use it most of the time if they dont have their evasive or reaction to dodge or block itll hit them
I think that's character for me! "Keeps missing moves" ahh lobotomy
pro tip:
use 4 when someone is doing a very raw front/side dash,if it lands its just free eats
Fun fact about Hero slayer ultimate You can counter about everything (though i really only countered deku ult)
Another fact you can Block Normal deku Ult the one where he basically drop kicks you
People are probably wondering why hero slayer doesn’t have a different ultimate apart from deku which does have a different ultimate the reason being that hero slayer isn’t a different person from his mastery character deku isn’t but the mastery isn’t just a op character thats different from his first form like hero slayer deku in the show has a different version of himself if you didn’t know which is vigilante deku and that’s his mastery and that is why hero slayer doesn’t have a ultimate I could be wrong and they could make a different ultimate but that is my theory if you read this to the end thanks (:
or maybe they didnt make his ultimate yet since they are still making shigaraki and deku mastery ult???
@@flextapeadhesive bro this is UA-cam I didn’t add commas or periods bro go back to kindergarten if you don’t understand
We're proud Fumblit
*buy lots of emotes they have special emotes you can use after killing someone and some have impact frames and there's a secret character you can get from Namu boss"
Easy combo:two m1s then 1st move then 1 m1 then 2ndmove and last m1 then side dash and while they Ragdoll use 3rd move.this is not True combo I hope this helps
you should avoid trying to use comboes that can be ragdoll cancelled unless the enemy doesnt have rc, because dashing is fast in this game, instead use all of the combo extenders then use something that knocks them back to end the combo
(i use m1 3x > thousand slashes > dagger > m1 1x > blackout, works all the time, this combo can be extended if the enemy doesnt have rc)
for curdle pierce, only use it when you THINK the opponent is about to strike you and do a combo, because they will mostly freeze up attacking you with their combo
Pro tip: farm namu in ps (you can buy or wait 30 min)
Its easier to kill if you have ps+
Try using namus for awakening s. Gives 13 percent when 1st. Also spans every 30 mins in pirv and 45 in pub
fumblit is gonna absolutely love the stain mastery, its so fun to use
you can do most quests in a private server to make it easier
Sanguine symphony when normally playing refills you ult for a few seconds
Do a vid about this game and the emote that lets u play rock paper scissors. If the player you defeat in rpc is max health they die, but same for you. Good for ending kill streaks
If you want to get mastery faster just go to your private server and then go to your character and go to like namu that's a boss that gives you a secret character but also gives you mastery a lot of mastery way more than the quest giver
you can farm nomu boss for better % you can farm them in ps and also you just need to beet around 12-13 nomu and you max out the mastery bar (ifarm nomu so i know)
Cool 😎
btw fumblit you can change color of your effects on settings since you got VIP gamepass
3:35 it's better to use number 3 side dash then 4
fumblit if you get a kill in your ult you get the 4th move back so if your lucky your ultimate can last way longer than normal
Now we are waiting for dabi mastery!i hope its gona be cool,cuz i got those 2 mastery in like 4 days,I WANT MORE
with indomitable will when you use it your ult goes fully up to max but goes down faster
I haven’t seen people say this but thousand slashes can hit them whilst there ragdolled making the combo potential even better
I've tried some combos, and the timing for the Curdle Piece is the moment they hit the ground after the uppercut.
good combo for stain with no mastery 3m1s +thousand slices+m1+triple dagger + blackout cluch. this combo is true btw too
Nice job getting stain fumblit🥳
good luck getting stain's mastery fumblit
I think the best way to farm mastery is by killing the nomu boss in a private server simce beating him give 13% mastery and doing the activate ult 3 times and destroy 5 tress since you can use the private server comands to do them very quickly.
Atleast thats how i got him quickly
Hey Fumblit/Blitfum you should do nomu in a private server it takes 30 minutes to it to spawn the nomu is very hard but i used a glitched to make the boss easier *requires ps+* i know it will say that u cant use ps+ but if you give yourself ult then remove your ult it will give u infinite ult *it only works with normal deku and stain* but im not sure if they fixed it or not.
Best strategy is to just grind the nomu boss in a priv server, thats the fastest way, only takesd like 5 hours or so
For cuddling pierce you have to wait for them to get up for it to work
Getting first place on killing namu gives you 12% it works in publics and privates
Crimson parry can counter many ults moves. Not all but alot
Stain 4th ult move is like hakaris R special in jjs it speeds up every move each time on use👍
Btw the fourth move refills your ult
My mic is bad because it’s something always puts the same word in it. First thing to mind.
I always enjoy watching the battlegrounds content even though I am not to good at battle grounds
I just got time warp and vigilante deku. I can’t wait to try them
the mastered version is pretty cool and unique ngl
btw the 4th move makes you're ult go up
Oh yea blitfum curdle pierce has super armor meaning you can use it while they dash
Just make the 4th move unpredictable by using before they rush on u
please for the LOVE OF GOD spare your suffering AND FIGHT SOME BOSSES EVERY 30 MINUTES ON A PRIV SERVER gl its faster but also painful
Fumblit you should fight nomu for the secret character and mastery
Hirogaru yami no naka Kawashiatta kakumei no chigiri Dare ni mo jamasasaeru wake ni wa ikanai kara
turn on blood bro. the effects are sick
i know a tech with base hero slayer that allows a 100% true damage combo. i'm gate keeping it though hehehe
hey fumblit can you train me someday? im a big fan edit:also if you wanna keep doing the ult one just go in ur private server and spam give ult and remove ult its how i get it
SIGMAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
I just got the mastery of Deku and now I want the mastery for Hero Slayer.
honestly i'd recommend just getting an alt and killing them over and over, thats how i got both of the character's mastery.
I did the same and I kind of regret it, I realize how much fun it actually would have been to unlock the character legitimately, it's also great for content doing it this way. I would recommend to anyone and everyone that you do it legitimately. It's a lot more fun than just sitting there at a screen for hours, pressing buttons, over and over.
Looks quite familiar.... the voice, the avatar, the pfp, hmmm.....
I did some math and to get mastery with 5% quest it will take you 97 kills
Stains 4th ult move gives you more ult
the fourth ult move gives back ult
Put blood on in settings it looks better
I will go with you
Bro I literally have been doing the same thing as you I got stain today so :)
Another banger ❤
Through Christ nothing is impossible
He should get warp portal after this (boss drop)
Live your content
BTW THE 4TH ULT MOVE GAINS BACK YOUR ULT IF YOU DONT HAVE INF ULT
just sayin but if you wait 30mins on a priv server kill the namu boss you get 12mastery 4 hours and youre done with one moveset
Stain mastery is weak but cool, most precise describtion
We love you vids
gotta get back to some off camera mining again...
W
ok
YIPPEE
Hiiii me big fannnn
Ok
