I've watched this each every time I make pizza. His voice is part of the experience. Thank you

Of all the pizza dough recipes I've seen on Youtube with millions of hits this one wins by a long shot. The recipe is simple, easy, quick AND this guy is a blast to watch having fun make pizza! Gennaro is a legend!

The way he explains the science of Yeast. Much more understandable than my teacher.

When I have a crap day I come and watch Gennaro, never fails to cheer me up. If everyone had the passion for what they do that Gennaro does the world would be a million times better.

Gennaro's personality and presentation is so entertaining to watch! He makes one in a happy mood. I shall even be tempted to make this pizza as he makes it seem easy and so delectable.

This recipe has become my go-to base recipe, and every time I make pizza I run around my kitchen shouting "Why I cook so gooood!"

[jjsoledad]

This guy is the best. I love his spirit.

He’s so charismatic and enthusiastic, best chef with the best dish ever!

[sebytro]

This is brilliant! I smiled when watching it, I smiled when making it and I smiled when eating it because of the passion that Genaro shows in the video. I made it vegan though, and it was a hit!

Did it yesterday. Wonderful dough!!! Loved the texture. My pizza was amazing.
Just to give you an idea:
I put Béchamel sauce, mozzarella, smoked Gouda, smoked blue cheese, mushrooms, fresh basil, garlic powder and pepper on top, Splash of olive oil.


Delicious.

I just discovered this guy. Late to the party I know, but I love him. His style, zest, warmth and how simple he makes the recipes. I’m now learning the basics of Italian cooking right here from an expert!
