I’ve seen skillet-cooked pizza before, but using things like the foil to trap the steam and retain heat better in the pan is rather ingenious! The tomato in the middle definitely makes the pizza a bit more even in level, although it does get a bit toasted. All in all, a unique way to cook a pan pizza! Nicely done, Vincenzo!
Thank you Jon. I am so happy you understood this method and get it. I did try it and I liked the results so i wamted to share this with you all. The tomato sauce in the middle ia extremely important ao we dont get the bubbles
Tried making pizza for the very first time and i followed his recipe since ive been following him for longg. The pizza actually came off very delicious and even better than Domino's that ive been eating my whole life 😭
My Nona used to make pizza by frying it in the pan. She would then make the sauce seperatly and pour it over the fried pizza base before serving. She was from Naples and grew up in Rome. She also used lots of black olives in her recipes. I believe it's more common in these regions of Italy. Her style of pizza was delicious, even though it was quite different, it's how she cooked it.
@@Robotoda2000 dont worry about "nona" word. It's basically the same thing even with just one n. 😅 That guy, just wondering about a new word that he never seen before. Just like asking "what is obaasan in japanese? Is that grandma?"
we Indians dont have ovens at home usually, so a lot of us started making pizza like this at home after watching Chef ranveer brar's recipe which is SUPER similiar to this one. Tastes amazing every single time ❤
I love how he explained everything in detail without skipping out even minute details for a layman to understand the very reasons how & why anything is being done. Thank you Mr.Vincenzo for such a easy and well explained recipe. I'll definitely try this one at home this weekend.
Little tips that he does but not talk about that would add more authenticity: don't beat the dough, you don't want trapped air to escape, don't use blender for crushed tomatoes (it will release bitterness from seeds). I've seen this in another video about Italian margarita. But for us, regular people that might not go for the extra it's not to important)
Outstanding recipe Vincenzo! My blood family was Scottish/English and the family that adopted me was Polish/German, but my neighbor was Italian/Polish (Hey, it was Chicago, we were all mutts in one way or another, lol) and Mrs. Rosinski made amazing pizza and cannoli's and pierogies. This recipe reminds me a lot of her cooking, she'd have 5 pots bubbling and hissing, the oven fired up and ready, and was a 4'10" dervish in the kitchen. She NEVER bought "pre-made" anything, it was an insult to her, she bought the basic ingredients and created everything from scratch. All us kids in the neighborhood ate like Kings when she decided to whip up a feast, and her home-made pizzas blew away anything in the city. Simple recipes, everything made on the fly, and cooked with love...nothing beats food like that.
Ciao Paul this will go down very easy with a nice cold guiness 😁😍to be honest its a very easy recipe. U can even try it with ready made pizza dough from coles
Years ago I started using a large frying pan to precook the homemade dough at low heat, while loading the pizza with tomato sauce etc…. Then when the base looked cooked I would finish off the pizza in the oven for 10 minutes. I was fed up of soggy soft pizza bottom. I still do it like this. Comes perfect every time. I like the crispy bottom and edges. Same for doing bred using a pan only instead of oven. Perfect for our coming planned power cuts in the UK! I will still be able to cook bread or pizza using gas 😈 (oven is electric).
Awesome job Vincenzo!! You explained all about the recipe and procedure perfectly!!! Thank you so very much and also for sharing your recipes with all of us!!! Blessings to you 🙏❤️❤️❤️
Thank you! When my son was little, I learned to make pizza in an Electric Skillet. Quick and easy and not heating up the house with a 450° oven. We had pizza often AND NO FROZEN CRAP.
Thank you for teaching me how to make my comfort food that lifts me up when life gets a bit too much...now i take this and make a lovely calzone...graci
Thank you for this video Vincenzo.. You explain things very well, especially the subtle tricks one uses with dough. I will make this later after I get some more flour. It looks most... excellent. The extra umami from toasting that bit of sauce as well as the crust will really bring out that flavor, almost like doing it in a traditional oven, but in a pan. You know your stuff... Thanks again for being so thorough... passing this on to others.
This looks wonderful. Here in N. America we are just heading into autumn so no issues using the oven. I'll remember this next summer when it it's too hot to bake. Thanks Enzo. In fact, I'm downloading this so I don't have to search for it later.
Hi Vincenzo, In one of your upcoming videos, could you show us the essential tools and ingredients needed for authentic Italian cooking? It would be especially helpful if you could include where to find key ingredients like pecorino cheese or guanciale for those of us in Australia. A kitchen tour highlighting these essentials would be fantastic as well! Nice video and appreciate your content!
Nice alternative, if no oven is available👍! I'm a huge pizza🥰fan, and my oven is 😩broken💔! That's why I'm very grateful 🌹to you for this recipe👌tip! I'll try tonight 🤞! Thank🌹you very much and best regards🤗from Zurich 🇨🇭🫶✌️
This classic pizza in a pan looks delicious. Here in my small Ontario village I unfortunately cannot find real mozzarella... so I use what's available. I used to work in a pizzeria, and like most of them around Hull-Ottawa they use a half and half mix of mozzarella and brick cheese. It is still good, but it is not a classic Italian pizza. Way to go Vincenzo !
Love the video vincenzo love your content your a amazing UA-camr I love watching your videos they are the greatest and the best and the coolest the pizza looks so yummy and delicious im So going to make for my family and friends it so easy to make it 😋 🤤another amazing video Vincenzo ❤️ pizza is the best food i love making it
Looks good, Vincenzo. 😋 I make pizza one day every week, but I alternate between my own biga and sourdough crust, because I’m T1D and both types of dough are better on blood sugar. I also prefer refrigerating my dough, because I prefer thin and crispy pizza, and overnight in the fridge really seems to help with the crunch. 😋 As for making pizza in a pan without an oven, never have. I have cooked pizza in a cast iron pan in the oven though, and it works pretty well, but generally I cook pizza in the oven on a steel.
I have to say, I have done this a few times. It is not bad. Quite edible and a lot less faff than an oven, for the most part. I have also crisped it up under the grill before serving, as I like the mozzarella to be just that little coloured and the edges to be crispy. Still, as you say, good if you are camping or elsewhere with just a hob. Grazie per aver condiviso.
My GF is very excited to travel together one day to Italy. Write this down: I will go to your restaurant just to congratulate you in person. You have improved (a lot) my way of understanding and cooking pasta ❤
Mate, I love your videos. I cooked and still cook your carbonara and is one of my favourite dishes. This pizza looks amazing and can't wait to cook it. Love the channel camp.
Thank you for the wonderful recipe Vincenzo, always a pleasure to watch you. Can I make the same dough without refrigeration and cook this in the oven?
Looks delicious.. What is the need to spread tomato paste and then turning out over? Can we not do it in the end when both sides are cooked through.. Like it was spread at the end with mozzarella etc? Thanks
The best pizza I've ever made was like this: Dense, low hydration dough parboiled in baking soda water to make it like a pretzel crust, and then put the dough into a preheated cast iron skillet with a lot of oil. Sauce and cheese were put on quickly, and then it was put into a preheated oven. Garlic butter was brushed on the crust and top, and it was seasoned with parmesan. The bottom was crisp, but the crust was also pretzel-like, and it worked surprisingly well.
I like this style Enzo. My only question: Tell us why can’t we use regular pasta semolina to cover the dough to give that gritty rustic texture and color?
Great pan pizza vincenzo! I really like this Idea, it's still Italian, just cooked in a different way. maybe add the tomato sause after flipping the pizza at once, in that way it won't burn.
Great ideas on this video, thank you ! Are you aware French people are the greatest pizza eaters ?!😅 Your T shirt just speaks the truth ! 😀👍🏻 This was confirmed by one of our PHD students who was from Roma … He said - gently ! - the way we ate carbonara in France with cream was just criminal … 😅

You missed the one crucial ingredient tho, the pineapple :))))
@@santoss5807
😱Oh Noooo😝terrible,but also a matter of taste😉😇
I want to try this method. Thank you for sharing.
Tried making pizza for the very first time and i followed his recipe since ive been following him for longg. The pizza actually came off very delicious and even better than Domino's that ive been eating my whole life 😭
His pizza is more like Pizza Hut pizza which has an oily crisp base too. Domino don't fry their pizza in a skillet
I have never gone wrong following a Vincenzo recipe! About 10 different tried and true from scallops to pasta carbonara to tiramisu!
Oh, I am glad to hear that my friend ❤️
Thank you for sharing your experience (especially the reference to domino's), I just might try it myself :)

She also used lots of black olives in her recipes. I believe it's more common in these regions of Italy. Her style of pizza was delicious, even though it was quite different, it's how she cooked it.
This is "pizza fritta" or "pizza montanara"... another kind of traditional neapolitan pizza.
"Nona"? is that like a mom or stepmom or grandmother or something?
@@FelixAlvo1 I spelled it wrong. It's Nonna. It's Italian from grandmother. My grandmother was Italian so I called her Nonna.
@@Robotoda2000 dont worry about "nona" word. It's basically the same thing even with just one n. 😅

@@DBT1007 no, it's NOT basically the same thing... with one "n" that word means "ninth".
I fell sleepy and I almost dropped my phone on the floor just watching him kneading the dough. So relaxing.

What a beautiful childhood memory
Great story, wonderfully described. There's a book in there somewhere!❤
I am making pan pizza for about 10-11 years now and it aways ends up great, but I learned some new tricks while watching this video.
Oh, really?!
What are the tricks?
@@vincenzosplatethe trick is no chili jam in the pizza
Vincenzo, you make it look so easy to do this.......I guess the more I make, the better they will become
Ciao Paul this will go down very easy with a nice cold guiness 😁😍to be honest its a very easy recipe. U can even try it with ready made pizza dough from coles
For sure, practice makes perfect, as they say. So the more you do it, the better you will become. I guarantee it.
Love the creative approach of making skillet pizza-perfect for camping!
Glad you enjoyed! Let me know if you give a try to this recipe 😊
My mum used to make us "frying pan pizza" as a treat in the early 1970s. How cosmopolitan did we feel!
Years ago I started using a large frying pan to precook the homemade dough at low heat, while loading the pizza with tomato sauce etc…. Then when the base looked cooked I would finish off the pizza in the oven for 10 minutes. I was fed up of soggy soft pizza bottom. I still do it like this. Comes perfect every time.

Perfect for our coming planned power cuts in the UK! I will still be able to cook bread or pizza using gas 😈 (oven is electric).
What i do is heat up an iron skillet, pretty hot, and put it on top, and it does wonderful ! Thank you for all your tips ! Gods Blessings

You're welcome my friend! Makes me happy to hear that this pizza recipe will come handy to you 😊
I've cooked it today and it was delitious and not complicated! Thank you!
Thanks for advice. I convert stale bread to pizza dough to avoid food wastage. Some ingredients unable to get in fresh except dried like dried herbs.
This looks wonderful. Here in N. America we are just heading into autumn so no issues using the oven. I'll remember this next summer when it it's too hot to bake. Thanks Enzo. In fact, I'm downloading this so I don't have to search for it later.

When I was a kid my siblings and I would use peta bread as the dough and heat it in the microwave oven. Tastes better then usa fast food pizza.
Nice 👍
