The way you incorporated the water yeast and salt in is the way my nonna taught me how to do it when she taught me to make our family Sicilian pizza. I make your double fermented dough now because my guests and family prefer Neapolitan pizza, but i still make my nonna's recipe for myself from time to time. Grazie per mantenere vive le tradizioni, Maestro!

I used this video to make my wife who grew up on the original Pepes Apizz. She litterally cried when she tasted it. Thank you so much

I'm 68 years old, all my family is from the New Haven area. However, I grew up in the Midwest. This pizza has been my ideal style since childhood. I've been making my own pizza for decades. This now will be a slice of heaven. Thank you all for sharing this.

I can't wait to try this New Haven style out. MOre so - we can't wait to visit Frank's with a big smile and a thank you to Vito and the KZread pizza community he's developed. The only issue is that now, all pizza we get from the "outside" is just second best to what we're able to achieve at home with time, care, and fresh ingredients - just as Vito dictates! Thank you VITO .. viva pizza!

My brother kept telling me about a clam pizza and I just ignored him for years.

It’s also more about the way the convection works in properly built stone ovens, and the amount of heat they can have that home ovens can’t get to. Home ovens max out at 550. Average temp for that oven is probably 625-650

@@ohger1 nope. The guy who works there even said so. If the oven was even close to that temp, the pizzas would be done in 90 seconds just like neopolitan style. The ovens are way to deep and it would be way too difficult to make neopolitan style in an oven like that because of how fast the pizzas cook and how frequently you have to rotate them so they don’t get burned from the main source of heat

Vito it was so wonderful watching your make the dough. I think Peppe was very impressed too! At 83, I could never mix the dough the way you did because of my body limits (degenerative arthritis in my spine among other things). I'm sure I'm not the only one who would love to see you do another video with this dough recipe but mixing it in a stand mixer for we elderly or physically compromised who still cook and love to make and eat pizza. 💕💕😊😊👍👍😊😊💕💕

I made this dough today - in the video you cut this in half for 2 dough balls but the recipe actually makes 3 x 550g balls. I will divide it by 4 and make 4 slightly smaller ones, can't wait to try!

I've made probably 100 pizzas so far, just watching you handle dough makes me realize I still have a long way to go. Thanks for showing me the New Haven style I'm going to do that next. Would love to see Sally's technique as well.

Great info! I've made the Pizza Gavones New Haven dough recipie and this is virtually identical! The only crucial thing I see different is the fast/ overnight proofing.... and this is CRITICAL to thin crust pizza. The 2/ 3/ 4 day fermentation process produces WAY too much gas. Such a great simple sauce and basic fresh ingredient concept- no wonder why Frank Pepe's is one of the best! Thank you gentlemen.

Great to learn this old technique while making a fifth documented attempt to approach New Haven style. Just keeping track of what works while tweaking. The absence of olive oil for the impasto and salt incorporation might just do it next time. Thank you very much, hope you’ll boomerang it back to the old country. What an oven to overcome the 10 minutes with a whole lotta volume. Definitely make it as this next time.

You moved back. We miss you. Great work. I make pizza all the time. Hybrid between new haven, new york and sicillian. Stretch it, let if proof stretched out 10-20min on the peel, then top and bake. Bubbles, fluff and crisp. Back of a large 15" cast iron pan. Convection oven at 530 or so. it does 550 but for me in my oven that's too hot. Let it bubble down and thicken the no cooked sauce. I grew up in southwick ma roma pizza. Definitely unique and spiced and well topped. Raw chunky peppers, chunky sauce. thick crust, little doughy thick in the middle. Medium thick. It was a fun place. Owners name was victor, driving a merc in our podunk town. hilarious

No disrespect to Neapolitan pizza, love them and Vito is the best, but IMHO nothing compares to an original New Haven pie. For me it is as pure as pizza gets... bread, tomato, herbs and a dusting of pecorino romano. Simple and spectacular. I do an 80/20 blend of bread flour and 00 with a little roasted garlic in my dough at 70% hydration. 24 hours of cold ferment is great, but for a little extra flavor to your crust, try 48-72 hrs...trust me, there is a difference.
