RECIPE
---
DOUGH
▪375g or 1.5c Warm Water (86F/30C)
▪4g or 1 1/3tsp instant yeast
▪15g or 1 1/4Tbsp olive oil
▪15g or 1 1/4Tbsp sugar
▪12g or 2tsp salt
▪600g or 4 3/4c All Purpose flour (I use 11.7% protein)
Add ingredients to bowl of stand mixer with dough hook attachment. Mix on low for 1-2 min or until dough forms into a mass. Increase speed to high and finish mixing for 3-4 more minutes.
When dough has become smooth and doesn’t tear/shear when you tug it, it’s done. Divide dough into 4 approx 250g pieces. Shape each into a ball as shown @1:21.
Place each ball into a well oiled bowl, cover, and refrigerate for 1-2 days.
3 hours before you’d like to eat pizza, pull dough from fridge and allow to come to room temp.
---
SAUCE
▪1 28oz can whole tomatoes
▪50g or 3 1/2Tbsp tomato paste
▪1g or 1tsp dried oregano
▪1g or 1tsp dried basil
▪Pinch of red chile flakes (½ tsp or so)
▪7g or 1 1/4tsp salt
▪10g or 2 1/3tsp sugar
▪Olive oil
▪3-4 cloves garlic, minced
Remove 3 tomatoes from the 28oz can and roughly chop them.
Add tomato paste, oregano, basil, chile flake, salt, and sugar into the 28oz can and puree with immersion blender until smooth.
Heat a long squeeze of olive oil (about 2-3Tbsp) in a saute pan over med-high. Add garlic. Stir and saute for about 30 sec. Add chopped tomatoes and cook for about a minute until reduced. Add the rest of the tomato puree to the pan. Reduce heat to medium and cook for about 15 min or until the sauce is reduced by half.
---
SHAPING / BUILDING / BUILDING THE PIZZA
▪Full fat aged Mozzarella
▪Parmesan, grated
Preheat oven at highest setting (for me that’s 550F/290C) with pizza steel/stone.
Grate mozzarella on largest holes of box grater. Place grated cheese in the freezer for about 45min.
Flour work surface and one of the doughs, and flip it out on to your work surface and flour the wet/non-floured side of the dough. Flatten dough with your hand then with a rolling pin, roll out into about a 10”/25cm round. Finish shaping by hand as shown @7:50 until dough is about a 12”/30cm round. Load dough onto pizza peel that has been well dusted with semolina flour.
Spread about 2c/240g of the chilled shredded cheese onto the dough followed by a generous pinch of grated parm. Add several large spoonfuls of the pizza sauce (about 120g/1/2c total per pizza). Spread slightly, making sure to leave plenty of the surface un-sauced.
Load onto the pre-heated pizza steel/stone and cook for 6min. Bottom should be well crisped up. Place onto a wire rack to cool slightly before cutting.

    I've been making pizza for 20+ years. Your video just taught me about freezing mozzarella before putting it on the pizza and putting the pizza on a cooling rack before devouring it. Good Job, Brian. I look forward to trying this out. Side note- Most of the good NJ pizzerias use Grande cheese, which can be VERY difficult to find at your local grocery store. I'm pretty impressed you caught on to that detail. Polly-o cheese is a solid alternative for Grande if you can't find it. That too can be somewhat difficult to find. Also, most pizzerias will use a 50/50 blend of part skim and whole milk mozzarella. It's a minor difference that just takes some of "heavyness" out of the pizza rather than using 100% whole milk mozz. Just whatever you do, don't use the pre-shredded cheese (which Brian never does).

    NJ food is extremely underrated in general. I grew up there so I’m biased, but I believe that the tight knit communities keep restaurants honest. In and around NYC, lots of restaurants aren’t catering to “real New Yorkers” so they lose some competitive edge. In NJ, every customer knows exactly what their pizza/bagels/anything else should be like & if it ever dips in quality they will find a new place that’s better. Represent NJ!

    Lovely - the only substitution I make is slightly under-baking the pie - once out, allowing the pie to set and then flash heat individual slices before service. I generally, don’t care for pizza scalding hot so this takes only but 2-3 minutes. The crust already had an opportunity to slightly harden so not much further heating would be needed. The bit about chilling the cheese is very-wise indeed, as doing this step significantly reduces the squeezing out of grease.

    Never thought about freezing the cheese. Good tip Brian! I've occasionally spritzed the top of the uncooked pie with water to prevent some premature cheese brownage but that just adds unnecessary moisture. Totally chilling my cheese next time!

    As someone who has been eating Trenton pies from Papa's, Delo's and Joe's for the better part of my life, I can say this looks beautiful. I don't make a lot of homemade pizza these days now that I am back in the NJ area after 8 years in Seattle, but I am going to give your recipe a try and see how it matches up! Looks great though!

    How sweet do you reckon the sauce is? My taste buds will throw a fit at savory sweet but a couple times here Brian did say this sauce is lightly sweet but I think he tends to prefer some savory dishes on the sweeter side

    Jersey girl here! Born and raised in North Jersey, Trenton is more central. I'm thinking, ok he's gonna make a new jersey pizza? Good luck with that since anyone from NJ knows what good pizza is. I'm thinking well if he doesn't use semolina on the bottom of the crust then epic fail.:) Ok, he did! Bri another winner again! Loved it, makes me miss home. Not one damn good pizza in Va beach. Marco's and Domino's isn't exactly what I consider pizza.

    Thanks for the vid. I've been making pizza at home for a few years now, although I cheat using Portland Pie Co. dough. This sauce is a great ratio, albeit the next time I may use 1 or 2 less grams of salt. Appreciate the education on gas in the dough. Shortened my out of fridge proofing to 3hrs and made a big difference in the crust.

    Your dough is at 62.5% hydration. 600\375 = 62.5. If you Drop your hydration down to 60% or even 58% your crust will cook faster and you won’t have to worry about the cheese and toppings overcooking.

    You know the rules! One bite. This is the kind of homestyle pizza I can get behind. Ranks right up there with Chicago tavern style. Favoring an almost 2 to 1 ratio of flour to water these days which gives a more crispy crust, less flop. The freezer-cheese hack is next level for the home pizza enthusiast.

    I'm from Asbury Park, NJ area. From what I see in this video, Trenton-style pizza is a bit different than what we typically get here. We are very proud of our thin-crust pizza which is a long-standing tradition though your pie looks tasty. I guess our pizza is most like NYC thin-crust pizza. John's Pizza of 278 Bleecker St. in NYC is one I have tried and liked that's quite similar to our own except they use coal-fired brick ovens. I lived on Freddie's Pizza in Asbury Park while growing up. Freddie's is gone, unfortunately, because they had wonderful pizza. Each pizza tasted exactly the same, great consistency. I have made my own pizza many times but I could not duplicate their taste. We now get our pizza at Luigi's in Lincroft, NJ. It not exactly like the Freddie's I loved but very close. Pete and Elda's in Neptune City, NJ is an area favorite as well.
