Great receipe for the dough, I made my own topping. The dough was super easy to make and very fragrant. Loved it, will be making it again and again.

New York-style Pizza? Not even close. I'm a New Yorker and can say positively this is not how you make a New York-style pie and is not what you will get from a NY pizza street vendor or from an elite NY pizza restaurant. I tried this recipe many moons ago but finally learned how its done. Several of us on Pizzamaking.com have documented the recipe for making authentic NY-style pizza.

I live in Australia and have craved American pizza since visiting a couple of years ago. This is the closest I have come to getting that great taste again, not exact but still so yummy. I find if you cook it on a pizza stone the result is much better. Thanks to the person that posted this recipe, everyone who has tried it in my family loves it.

As a native New Yorker/pizza expert, this is far from what you'd get in a pizzeria, but it is tasty. I probably won't make again since the real thing is a walk up the block for me, but I have tasted pizza hut/papa john's etc. and this is definitely better than their "pizza". I added extra garlic while it was baking! man i love pizza... :D

Nice pizza. Simple and delicious. I used only drained and chopped organic tomatoes as I don't like the typical pizza sauce. A solid four star...probably could be a five with a thinner dough.

I made this for dinner for my family tonight and it was a pretty mixed review. One of my sons said it was terrible, my other son said it was awesome. My husband was kind of indifferent. I thought the crust was pretty good but the sauce needed some tweaking. I think it would be better to blend the tomatoe sauce and seasonings together then heat on the stove to cook the seasonings together. I felt it was missing something. Like another reviewer posted, I was thinking garlic would have been a good addition to the sauce. I will definitely make the crust again but will either find a new sauce or tweak this sauce next time.

This recipe had a lot of flavor. BUT the dough was waaaay too thick and chewy. If the crust had of been better, the pizza would have been perfect.

Even with the addition of gluten, the dough did not rise much and the finished crust looked much like the thickness of that in the picture. I even added a tsp. of sugar to the yeast to act as a catalyst. 1 tsp. of yeast is not even half of a package. This does not make alot of dough, and it did not even come to the edges of my large round pizza pan. Crust tasted similar to frozen. Made the crust only and topped w/fresh romas, garlic infused EVOO, cheeses, red onions, basil, and roasted red peppers.

This is a pretty good pizza. I did a few things different. I heated the tomato sauce on the burner with the basil, oregano and added minced garlic. I let the dough rise 2 times, and I encountered a problem as I used waxed paper instead of parchment and it was quite a task to transfer it to my stone (I sprinkled corn meal on the hot stone). I also added cooked italian sausage, mushrooms, grn pepper, and pepperoni and used only about 8 - 10 oz of the cheese. The cooking time 15 mins worked pretty well despite my additions and the stone gave a nice crunchy crust. I'll definitely try it again and will buy some parchment as it could have been a disaster without hubby's help during the transfer!

I made this pizza but used "Jay's Signature Pizza Crust" as my crust. The pizza turned out good but I felt that the Romano cheese was a little pverpowering so if I make this again, I would reduce that or eliminate it completly.

I wouldn't exactly call this NY Pizza...being a native myself. Sorry, it's just not the real thing. So much so that I probably won't make it again. I'll keep looking for another recipe.

Fantastic! Far better than take out and even better than our best pizza restaurant! Fresh taste and great crust! Super simple and fun to knead the dough. I use fresh oregano and basil and low salt tomato sauce as the cheese is salty enough for us. I make a double batch of crust and usually do some toppings on one of them for variety, but this version is the favorite. My family will not go out for pizza again.

Good pizza. I accidentally used cayenne pepper instead of flakes and it was a little spicy, but not bad. I used 1/3 cup wheat flour - could have used more, it wasn't noticeable. 3 of us ate all but one slice.
