    FOR THIS RECIPE YOU'LL NEED:
    (Recipe below makes two 12" pizzas)
    POOLISH:
    50g water
    pinch yeast
    50g ap flour
    1. Combine water, yeast, and flour. 2. Stir to combine. 3. Put mixture in a container with a lid and let sit at room temp for 18-24 hours.
    DOUGH (with Poolish):
    180g warm water
    All of the poolish
    5g yeast
    10g olive oil
    315 ap flour
    8 salt
    10g sugar
    1. Into a container add warm water, all of the ripe poolish, oil, and 5g yeast and stir to combine. Set aside. 2. Into the bowl of a food processor add flour, salt, and sugar. Slowly stream in wet ingredients. Spin until well combined + 15 seconds. 3. Flip out onto cutting board and give it 30-40 rolls with the palm of your hand for about 60 seconds as shown in video. 4. Tuck into a ball and put in oiled bowl then wrap with plastic and allow to ferment at room temp for 45 mins. 5. Flip out onto surface and divide into two 300g balls and shape into round balls with seam at the bottom. Be sure to close the seams well. 6. Put the dough balls onto an oiled sheet tray, cover with plastic, and put in fridge to proof for about 24 hours.
    If you're making the dough WITHOUT poolish, use the recipe above, but omit the poolish and instead use 50g more flour & 50g more water to the amounts in the recipe above.
    SAUCE:
    28ox can whole san marzano tomatoes
    2 cloves garlic, whole, smashed
    15g olive oil
    15g butter
    1g chile flake
    1g dried oregano
    3 g salt
    5 g sugar
    1. Preheat medium saute pan over medium heat. 2. Using immersion blender (or standard blender), blitz can of tomatoes until almost smooth. There should be some texture left to the tomatoes. 3. Peel and smash 2 whole cloves of garlic. 4. To the preheated pan, add olive oil and butter then smashed garlic. Let gently sizzle for about 3 minutes. Be sure to not burn garlic. 5. Add tomatoes and bring to a simmer. 6. Add chile flake and oregano. 7. Cook down sauce to concentrate and reduce by about half (about 25-30min). 8. Once reduced, remove garlic cloves and add salt and sugar to season. 9. Scoop into a bowl and refrigerate.
    TOPPINGS:
    200g part skim mozzarella
    200g full fat mozzarella
    6TBSP fresh mozzarella
    pinch of salt to finish pizza before baking
    Grate part skim and full fat mozzarella on the large holes of a box grater.
    TO ASSEMBLE AND BAKE ONE PIZZA:
    1. Allow dough balls to come to room temperature. 2. Preheat oven with pizza stone on the lowest rack of the oven to 550 degrees f/287c (or about as high as your oven temp will go). 3. Flour top of a dough ball and flip onto a floured surface. 4. See video for shaping method. 5. Once dough is shaped into about a 10" round, carefully flip onto the front of a floured pizza peel and 6. spread 200g of pizza sauce onto dough leaving about 1/2" of exposed dough around the edge. 7. Add mozz blend (175-200g total). Shimmy dough on peel to be sure it's not stuck, then 8. carefully stretch pizza to increase the size to about a 12". 9. Add about 3tbsp of fresh mozzarella 10. and a pinch of salt. 11. Load onto well-preheated pizza stone using pizza peel. Let bake for about 6min at 550 degrees.

    Brian?!?!? BRIAN?!!?!?!? I made this. I have NEVER.... EVER... eaten anything MORE DELICIOUS in my whole life! Thank you. I have no words. I actually wiped a salty tear when I ate this. The pizza in Australia is delicious but nothing like this. Also, I did a bianco with pulled lamb, Middle Eastern spices, sumac and labne topping. I saw God! You should try it.

    I’m a big fan of your pizza series. Your NY style pizza dough is in my pizza dough routine now. I modified it a little to include some semolina flour and sometimes whole wheat as well as to use my sourdough starter instead of a refrigerator cold ferment rise. I mix it in a big glass bowl by hand with a strong silicone spatula and let it rise overnight. It’s great. I also love the full-fat cheese + shredded part-skim mozzarella combo you do and now use it on pretty much all my American style pizzas. I tend to do a blend more like your St. Louis style cheese blend, something closer to 2 parts part-skim shredded mozzarella 1 part full-fat shreddable cheese and 1 part hard aged grated cheese. I often do cheddar for the shreddable full-fat cheese and Romano or similar for the hard cheese. For my American style pizza sauce, I started doing a combo of tomato paste, water, crushed tomatoes, olive oil, a little sugar, salt, garlic powder, dried oregano and dried Italian herb blend. It really reminds me of American style pizza I grew up with.

    Great video as always Brian. Really enjoy your style and the simplicity of things. I made these pizzas today. I had an issue with transferring my first one to the oven (wouldn’t come off my board) and so it ended up like a hugely rustic looking calzone. The second one I approached differently and constructed it on my hot pizza tray. Came out amazing though and the taste was fantastic. I added some Italian style “sawsage” from the Chicago pizza pie recipe. By the way the calzone tasted fantastic too.

    Nice job! The only thing for me is salting the pie. Instead, I’d hit it with a nice sprinkling of Locatelli. That will provide the salt and added flavor. For those not familiar with the brand, it’s Pecorino Romano cheese. Being in NJ, Locatelli is more than just traditional! NY style pizza rocks!

    Before this video was released, I had been experimenting with pizza occasionally. While they came out edible, they were very disappointing. It just wasn't the pizza I had in mind.
    When Brian released this video, I started it almost the same day. Since then, I've made this recipe many times and I can say I've fully achieved the pizza I wanted. Thin but not stiff, like an NYC slice.
    The thing I look forward to now is getting a proper pizza cooker.
    edit: sometimes I leave the formed dough balls in the fridge for 48hrs. Even more fermentation and deliciousness.

    I’ve watched all of your pizza vids-they’re so great! Thanks so much for doing the research and creating these recipes and all the fabulous video production too. Have you seen Joe Beddia’s book “Pizza Camp”? He has a shop in Philadelphia. I found his book to be very inspiring. His base dough and sauce and instructions on how to get a good strong bake with bubbles and burnt bits are right on. His tomato pie recipe is pretty good too.

      Thanks so much for watching. I love that book. It’s really inspiring for sure. It’s funny because the pizzeria I worked at developed its own style that happened to be super similar to Joe’s without realizing it, then the “best pizza in America” article came out and we were like, oh people are going to think we ripped him haha.
      Much respect to Beddia though, he’s one of the best. I hope to eat his work one day! Thanks for watching

    My wife, an Italian from S.I. N.Y., adds a little parmesan cheese before the Mozzarella. It has a little saltiness to it, so no need for extra salt. I may try this sauce recipe, though, when she's not around. Don't want to insult the Mrs.

  • @longshot789

    Nice recipe. I did the poolish overnight but first half was only proofed 9 hrs in the fridge. Also had it too high in the oven (my bad; top cooked before the center/bottom crust was done). Was good but not quite cooked in the middle and sucked as leftovers.
    The 2nd dough ball sat for 5 days in the fridge. I don't have a pizza stone so I did it at 500* about 1/3rd up in the oven. Turned out great. Seemed like with no stone/steel it cooks better lower in the oven. I'll have to pickup a stone before I try it again. Thanks man. Love your channel! Between your channel, Gordan Ramsay's, and Alex the French Guy, my kitchen skills have improved dramatically!

    100% True! Right after I added the seasoning to the sauce, my 18 year old son instantly appeared in the kitchen boldly stating "that smells ah-maz-ing!!"
    Making these tonight (day 3). Question - would the bake time just be a minute or so less using a pizza (~700 F) oven? I have a pizza stone to use in the oven like you did in your video, but the pizzas I've made in the pizza oven have been perfect so naturally, I want to try it on this.

    • @BrianLagerstrom

      I would just keep an eye on it. 700 is hotter than average for NY style.AP flour has barley malt in it and that makes dough color faster at high temps.

      @@shaneharvey4782 Depending where you live, Krogers and a few other stores have organic AP flour which usually isn't malted or enriched. It costs a quite a bit more, but would be awesome for this recipe in a 700f pizza oven. I know 4 minutes at 700 wouldn't be a traditional NY, but it would make a great pizza.

    I tried this recipe and it was really the closest I could get to a good NY style slice shop since moving to the middle of nowhere. Delicious. I just have one question-- I didn't get great browning on my crust, thoughts on where I went wrong? I kept the oven temp down at 500 since I'm experimenting with a new oven, could it be as simple as needing to crank it up to the full 500F next time? Would appreciate your feedback, B dog.

    For anyone who doesn't want to mess with the pizza peel and a stone, there are what they call BBQ pizza pans (with lots of holes in the metal AND has handles you can grab) that work phenomenally without needing to preheat even and it comes out perfect. You can also pre-bake the crust 2-3min, pull it out and then put toppings on if you want a thinner crust, then bake 4min more with toppings on and then switch to broil for 2-3min to get that cheese nice and toasty
