How to Make Perfect Pizza | Gennaro Contaldo
Hi lovely people of Food Tube. I am in Gozo,beautiful Gozo. It's an island next to Malta.
Yes! I'm gonna celebrate this beautiful island,I'm gonna make my own homemade pizza - classic
margherita. So simple, so easy. The world lovePizza. Why you should go buy? Make your own.
It's cheap and easy and it is delicious!Let me show you how. A bowl, 500g of strong
flour, 1 teaspoon of salt, sachet of 7g ofdried yeast, then you have here 325ml of warm
water.Straight in. Mix it Now can you see the salt
on here? I'm gonna mix it, the salt with theflour. The yeast goes inside then you mix
it.What is it about making pizza? It's fantastico!
Turn it down, move the spoon, then start tomix it.
Fantastico!This stage I need a little bit of flour, just
a little bit. Put it on top. This is the wayyou clean your hands. I love making pizza!
You gather all together and that.With the palm of your hand in one side, you're
holding for the other one, you pull it andyou fold it, you pull it and you fold it and
you carry on doing that, ok?Then you get the other side, pull it and you
fold it.Now the dough is ready! Get the flour, just
roll it a little bit. Get a knife, you doone, two, three and four. It's about, 150g.
Roll it, roll it. Now you've got four beautifulportions of dough. Now I'm gonna proof the
dough. First, we need a little bit of semolina.If you don't have semolina use breadcrumbs,
it works fantastic. This is what I used todo. I'm gonna proof it. What is proofing?
Yeast is alive. Soon as it touch water, startto move it. Soon as it touch the flour, starts
to feed. They create air. Oxygen goes bubblinglike oooooh. And it goes boobooboobooboo,
double the size. Because they are happy! Butthen, (sigh) they rested. They become very
elastic, you can stretch them nice, I don'tmind.
Put a little flour on top, put a damp clothon and let it proof for at least two hours.
Here they are! (sings) Bam bam bam bam!Flour. Look at that!
They double the size. Press it and turn themaround again, pick him up. Look at that!
Ok. Now there is a little hole here. Don'ttry to stick it, try to take it from the sides
of the pizza, put them on the middle. Thenwith your finger, just press it. This is really
fantastic. Stop!We get nice tomato, or Passata will do.
Or this particular one I've flavoured withthe garlic, it's easy.
Stop from the middle, you do not need toomuch tomato. Drizzle with some little olive
oil. It help to flavour the pizza.Little bit of salt. When you reach the stage
to make the classic margherita, you need parmesancheese. This will be so delicious. Nice mozzarella.
For each pizza you need about 50g of mozzarella.Just break with your hands, it's so good.
Basil, break it. Yes, with a nice drizzleof olive oil again. Pallet, here you are.
Little semolina on the pallet. Don't be afraid, readjustit. Now a miracle will happen. Yes!
This is very rustic!
Oh yes! This is whatI call a pizza. Look at that! The perfect
pizza! The tomato, the basil on top, the cheese,the Gozo olive oil. Gozo I love you. You can
put salami, you can put preserved vegetable,make your own, it's ever so easy. If you want
