I like how you are able to reasonably cut calories rather than come up with bad substitutions that make a cardboard pizza. Amazing channel, man

Doing this with Calzone so I can make the low-cal Calzone zone a reality

Tip from an avid home pizzaiolo: putting the pizza on a cooling rack directly after pulling it out of the oven will help the bottom of the crust stay crispy.

Two things I love about your videos:

1. You're not perfect and you're not ashamed to show your mistakes
2. You take the best bites of any youtube chef

[DiningwithAlex]

Love the fact that you are showing the "mistake" of using a small container for the dough!

[icecreambone]

heck yeah i will add 50 calories for that garlic butter crust

Ethan got a sponsor. He'll be up there with the foodtuber legends soon enough. Keep it up, man!

[Tinahgirl]

I just really appreciate the fact that you actually eat the food. So many people get half a teaspoon and say it’s amazing. But you really get in there and taste, which is great!

Man, I am so happy that your effort has been noticed by the algorithm. About a year ago, I had found your channel by accident. In the comment section of Brothers Green video. Maybe you remember this awful one where he has broken pasta in half before boiling it and called it noodles. I don't know why do I bother you with this comment but I just felt that urge to stop by and thank you for everything. Especially high quality of your videos even before huge number on your subs counter. Cheers!

The chicken thigh sausage turned out amazing! I never thought of making my own with the food processor. Tastes great and a lot less calories. I used 585g chicken thighs (I wanted to have extra), 1.5% salt, I didn't have rosemary so I used: 1g of oregano, 1g of thyme, 2g red pepper flakes, 2g of fennel and it was perfect. The high hydration dough is more difficult to work into a pizza shape and I didn't get to 10-12" more like 8-10". Letting it rest that hour before shaping important. I had better luck shaping it mostly on the counter not too much picking it up or it would get way too thin. I cooked mine in a 470 deg oven for ~10 mins on a normal oven round pizza pan and it turned out great.

Been watching your channel for a while now and I love how much you've improved. You're one of my favorite cooking YouTubers! Please keep up the great work!

totally just distracted by the fact he's drinking milk with his pizza lol

"Cover with plastic wrap" - Ethan fumbles with putting an oversized lid on the bowl. I laughed out loud

Senior in college living by myself. You snd kenji are keeping me sane, and lean. Lol. Thanks!

[showersmoker]

I was expecting you to mention how a lot of restaurants use whole milk mozzarella as opposed to part skim. A few more calories saved I would assume. I’m definitely going to have to try a high hydration dough, because the texture you described is exactly what I’m looking for.

This came at the perfect time, I'm about to start making my own homemade pizza for the first time! 🤤 Great to see a lower calorie version that I could make as a healthier option too, glad you didn't just reduce the amount of cheese! 😅

[ranzell.]

This is great because I'm trying to decrease my calorie intake but still want to enjoy food.

[WarChortle]

We've been using a Breville Pizzaiolo during quarantine and been very happy. Pizzas do taste different when cooked at a higher temp. I've done the whole pizza screens, cast iron, and pizza stones as well so no hate there.

I really was having a bad morning till I saw him post this 😊

[satorius]

Your videos are probably my favorite food videos on YouTube. I genuinely love the food science adjusted for home cooks style you have, it's honestly really encouraging as a beginner
