Whitney Cummings and Michael Rapaport learn how to make pizza (sort of) on this episode of Bert Kreischer’s cooking show, SOMETHING”S BURNING. Special thanks to Gil Tamazyan (Platter Pizza)
Ingredients:
For the Dough:
– 4 cups Italian tipo “00” flour or bread flour, plus extra for dusting
dough
– 2 teaspoons kosher salt
– 1 teaspoon active dry yeast
– 1 1/2 cups water
– Cooking spray or olive oil to coat containers
For the Sauce:
– 1 (14-ounce) can whole peeled Italian tomatoes, preferably San
Marzano
For the Toppings:
– 12 ounces fresh buffalo mozzarella or fresh cow’s milk mozzarella
(fiordi latte), cut into 1/4-inch slices or torn into small chunks
– Handful basil leaves
– 4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Recipe:
– Make the Dough
– Combine flour, salt, and yeast in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with
a dough hook attachment. Mix to combine.
– Add water and mix to combine. Then, knead dough on low speed for
10 minutes. The mixture should come together into a unified mass
that barely sticks to the bottom of the bowl as it kneads. If dough
sticks, add flour 1 tablespoon at a time to the mixer while it is
running, until the mass barely sticks to the bowl. If the mixture is too
dry, add water 1 tablespoon at a time to the running mixer.
– Cover bowl tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 8
hours. It can be refrigerated for up to 72 hours.
– When ready to make pizza, transfer dough to a floured work surface. – Divide dough into four even sections.
– Coat four small containers or bowls with nonstick cooking spray or
olive oil.
– With floured hands, form each section into a ball. Place one dough
ball into each coated container or bowl. Lightly spray the top of each
dough ball with nonstick cooking spray or coat with olive oil.
– Cover each container or bowl tightly with plastic wrap, and let rise at
room temperature for 2 hours. Each dough ball should double in
volume.
Make the Sauce
– Make the sauce by either pushing the tomatoes through a food mill
or simply pulsing them in a food processor until a chunky liquid is
formed.
– Heat oven to at least 475 F, higher if your oven allows. If using a
pizza stone, place it in the oven to heat as well.
– Assemble the Pizzas
– Onto a well-floured surface, stretch out each ball into a 10-inch
circle. Use a floured rolling pin if you need it. Don’t worry about the
dough being a perfect circle!
– Place one dough ball onto a lightly floured pizza peel, shake gently to
ensure that the dough is not sticking.
– Spread about 1/3 cup of sauce over the dough, leaving about a 1/2-
inch edge unsauced.
– Top the sauce with a quarter of the mozzarella slices. Tear a few
basil leaves on top (according to your liking) and drizzle with 1
tablespoon of olive oil. You can also add the basil and olive oil after
the pizza is cooked.
– Transfer pizza from peel to the hot stone and bake about 5 to 7
minutes, until cheese is bubbly and crust is charred in places.
– Repeat with remaining dough balls and ingredients.

Whitney is so obnoxious with her constant interruptions. She really thinks she knows it all & so botoxed. I think the botulism has seeped in her brain. Also, 2 Broke Girls had the hackiest writing
I'm going to join the "comedy gatekeepers"… had to turn this off after a few minutes. Yea, I know, free entertainment, yada yada.
She meant to say 'nauseated'.
I actually really enjoyed Whitney Cummings! People are hating, but I think her energy matches that of an alpha dog. Like if Whitney was a man in this interview, people would lover her. I’m a man, and I stand by this comment lol
Was gonna write a shitty coment but see its already done. Thanks fam.
Female comic with an ounce of confidence? The comments will love this.
this chick trying to hard….be quiet
