The amount of water you need can depend on the humidity of the room and moisture/absorption in the flour you use. Fermenting in the fridge allows the yeast to get more yeasty tasting. When fermenting, you want to portion your dough so that it's 1/3-ish the size of the container to avoid a blowout. Lastly, the pizza stone usually needs at least an hour to two to really get ripping hot and will season itself over time, so staining is normal. Nice job team

I'm so hesitant to get a pizza stone. It'd so much wasted energy to heat it up. Same goes for the steel. So I just take the L and bake it in the oven normally. I just let the dough bake for 5 minutes and then add the rest and let it bake completely. It might not be as crispy as with the stone but it is much cheaper in every way

The amount of water in his recipe is way too much. For NY style pizza you want 60% hydration, so if you use 1000g of flour you use 600g of water. If you dont have a scale, by volume water is about twice as heavy as flour. Definitely use bread flour as well. It is stronger and will absorb more water than all purpose or whole wheat.

When your oven temp is that low try the following: 1) smaller pizza. Making smaller pizzas allows you to make them thinner. Should cook crispier. 2) slightly bake dough before adding toppings. This will help prevent over cooking your toppings. You can do this with the sauce if you want. Be careful that the dough doesn't get bubbles. 3) If you have a large circular pan that can hold your pizza you can always throw it on the stove to better cook the bottom if you're unsatisfied.

Pizza was low in the oven, which is somewhat cooler (and you can't broil). Pizza stone may not have been preheated enough. Also the dough seems like some whole grain thing - that'll affect gluten development and will be harder to brown. Crust looked OK except for where it was folded.

I always like adding a bit of garlic salt or powder to my pizza dough for extra flavor. Side note to anyone who tries this that the resulting dough will smell extremely weird, best way I can describe it is the yeast smell and the garlic fighting to be the dominant smell. Thankfully its not a smell that sticks but gets a bit stronger when letting the dough double in size. Once cooked it tastes amazing.

The wetness of the dough is not the problem per se. High hydration pizza is very normal in Italy (for naepolitan pizza 70% hydration is very common) and helps make a nice puffy pizza. For cooking my advice would be to make smaller balls since the pizza was going to be way too big for your oven. About 1kg (500ml water and 500g of flour) of dough is more than enough when divided by 4. Also you should cook the pizza with just the sauce for like 4 minutes or so before adding the cheese due to the low oven temperature! Hope this helps.

It's the realness I'm here for. Perfect content from food creators isn't all that creative.

to stop the pizza stone from becoming more of a mess use baking paper, laying the dough out on it makes getting the pizza into the oven easier too.

man, this is turning into my new favorite channel real quick. might wanna try some mithycal kitchen/gmm receipies? they have a few cases where they accidentally discovered good combos, those could be interesting, keep up the good work and since this comment is getting way too positive, remember that nothing is real and we're all in a matrix :)

you did my pizza role up meathod. I also recommend drizzling ceaser salad dressing and hot sauce/sriracha on it before wrapping it up.

Yes, it's normal for your pizza stone to get more stained every time you use it. Those stains are the oils from your pizza/whatever else impregnating the stone, and help it get more nonstick over time. A clean pizza stone is an unused pizza stone. You probably did overwork the dough right at the end. That's an easy mistake to make and why you have to be relatively delicate handling the dough once it's proofed. It's tough to preserve those bubbles. You can also add a few folds to the dough while its proofing to help improve its gluten structure, that'll make it a little hardier and help it hold onto its gas bubbles while shaping. Ragusea's recipe is a solid B, but his assembly method leaves a lot to be desired. I've had way better luck with the same day pizza dough recipe from the Flour Salt Water Yeast cookbook. If you're not using a machine then autolyse and a long, slow ferment are extremely useful additions.

I had the same hydration issues as you, for some reason his recipe called for 100% hydration and each and every time I've tried it it's been a nightmare to work with. I'm glad it wasn't just me

Nice job team!

I like to pre cook the doe a couple minutes, then add the topings, makes a much better crunchy crust without needing to over cook the cheese.

Yes your pizza stone is supposed to get dirtier each time you use it, just make sure to wash off the crusties but the color applied to the stone is normal. (people call it seasoning the stone)

The competitive speed-eaters do something like that with the pizza but the cheese and sauce goes on the outside. Slides down easy, minimal required chewing.

Finally! You doing Adam Ragusea recipes! Would love to see more!

@@REALPEDROGAMEPLAYS Rag man give wrong recipe, too much water. Hope you can understanding now.

Friendly tips - different types of flour react differently to water, whole wheat flour can take much less hydration compared to all purpose for example, this is probably why you needed so much extra flour.. Also, you are looking for strands of gluten when stretching the dough to see if it's ready, and those only show up after some time kneading/some time proofing the dough. Instead of adding more flour and testing, sometimes your dough just needs more kneading/rest. Adam proofed his dough balls separately to make sure he doesn't deflate them after the proof, you proofed the dough as a whole and then kneaded the air out of the individual balls, this creates a thin and dense crust instead of a crisp and airy one.

I’ve made this recipe many times it’s so good and quick

Bro the pizza roll method is one i wasnt aware of.. thank you so much, I'll never fold them in half again.

Whole wheat flour needs more time to soak in the water, that's why you were having trouble kneading it. Just let the dough rest for half an hour and try again. In general, if you're not making a 100% whole wheat bread or whatever, don't go over 20:80 ratio of whole wheat:regular flour.

Bruh you are a genius with that roll up technique!

My dad when in college would make ramen+ steakums and then somewhat stir fry them together with green pepper/ onion

Use a clean beer bottle or wine bottle to roll out the center of the dough, to push the gas bubbles in the dough towards the far edge of the crust. It's up to you if you want to either flatten the crust or keep it puffy. This is how to ensure the crust is uniformly thin, all around. Hand-tossed with the gravity method is tricky if your dough is on the wet side, like yours is/was, unless you have a lot of practice and can stretch+assemble the pizza quickly. That's also too much dough for one pizza. For the doughball's weight, you'd get better results if you aim for a total of about 250-255g for a 10-12" pizza.

"It wont be dripping oil"It procceds to drip half the oil it was made with

If you par bake the crust first then you should get a much crispier crust. Learned that the hard way with the woodfired pizza at my parents business.

So I reckon your woes (particularly with flavor and crispiness) come down to flour selection; whole wheat flour doesn't taste as good in pizza dough as bread flour. It also hydrates a little differently and develops gluten a little differently, so you could make a thousand pizzas to perfect your technique, but it still wouldn't taste as good as just bread flour. Keep at it!

Been waiting for a week Lesssssaaaa gooooo

underrated analogy

Do the math. 600ml of water = 600g of water = 100% of the flour. That is 100% hydration dough. If 80% hydration is considered extremely hard to work with because of how wet it is then obviously 100% is too much. I'd suggest trying to starts with 2 American cups (480 ml = 80% hydration for 600g of flour) and adding flour as needed.

Just once I want to see you completely follow a recipe instead of substituting random ingredients and not having the right kitchen tools.
