I used to not like anchovies. Not because I had ever tasted them before but, because my friends in high school said they were gross when we ordered a pizza. Then I had my first real Caesar salad and that all changed. Sometimes it's better to not know what's in something before trying it so that personal prejudices don't get in the way of what may be awesome.

The reason why us Italians used bread crumbs instead of cheese is because back in the day when we came over to the states we were insanely broke and cheese was a little more on the expensive side so instead of putting cheese on pasta and pizza we used bread crumbs because it was way more affordable. The texture with bread crumbs and pasta is actually really good btw i recommend it

Man, I'm Sicilian and I love sfinciuni (in Sicilian that's how it's spelled). The only difference and suggestion I'd like to add to your tecnique is to put the cheese, preferably a sheep cheese like caciocavallo ragusano or Sicilian pecorino, BEFORE the sauce. That's because we don't want our cheese caramelized, rather entwined with the dough. Also, but that's personal preference, I like my anchovies in small bites pressed into the dough after it has been spread onto the tray.

@mikedoesseo Yes, but stacking the layers is important...I start w/ my minced garlic soaking & bathing in a decent olive oil while I'm doing other prep work. Sometimes I've heat it up, then turn off the heat & just let it soak. Let it get happy. Once my onion is chopped & everything else is ready, I turn the heat back on low heat, tilt the pot so everything is in the corner over the low flame...then add 2-4 anchovies fillets & just start mashing everything in the corner of the pan until it's a very wet paste...then add my onion & dry herbs & do the same... bring out those flavors into the oil, get the onion tender/ translucent... then I crank the heat, but not burn the garlic...I then add some tomato paste ( want it to sing when I add it)... mash it & sweat it down, then start stacking my other tomato products (a little water if needed, or wine to de glaze) , one at a time. Keep stirring & stacking those layers of flavor.
@mediasmoker

@mikedoesseo Anytime. It's also worth noting, for anyone reading this... Some dried herbs & spices don't always respond so well when only using a liquid (water soluble vs oil soluble), but work as a carrier when infused in oil. Example: Everyone knows that cinnamon will just float on top of water, milk or eggs ...but if it were in some oil such as vegetable or coconut oil, it will then absorb the oil & the flavor becomes enhanced. In a lot of Asian cooking, they have a pepper flake oil that is used for some dishes...that oil wakes & carries the dormant pepper that would otherwise probably just sit there isolated if it were only in a liquid. Heat does eventually (usually) accomplish the task, but takes longer as sometimes isn't as proficient w/o the oil. The same goes with the olive oil & anchovy oil...I sometimes have been known to even pour a little of the oil from the jar, right into my base...(but don't tell anybody). Anchovies should be treated similar to a Bouillon cube, it's condensed Umami flavor. A little goes a long way & you have to adjust based on the level of flavor you want to deliver. You usually will know when you've hit the right notes, when nobody can quit figure out what the flavor profiles are in your creation...Sometimes it's just fun to keep them guessing, as long as they enjoy it, : )

I cook mine for the last 15 minutes on a pizza steel. Perfection. Anyone near the great state of Maine can get this at SLAB PIZZA, if you don't feel like dishing it out yourself.

This dough recipe is the best I've ever used for homemade pizza

"we're not necessarily telling our guests that this is an onion and anchovy pizza, since that may turn off a few folks" Eheh! Like they can refuse the offer...

2:47 "And then the co-star of this sauce along with the onions - 9 anchovie olive oil packed filets. OK, 8 is not enough and 10 is too many." This recipe is very precise!

I love near an amazing Sicilian bakery. They sell this pizza (among other flavors) by the square on weekends. At first I didn't think I'd like it. Now, it's one of the foods I crave late in the evening when wanting a snack. Savory and delicious! Thanks Chef!!

Could you make this without a dough machine?

A machine is just a faster, more convenient way to get things done. A strong wooden spoon, elbow grease, and time will let you make the dough too.

Yeah but like he said the dough is quite sticky so you'll need to wet your hands a bit with water or oil before kneading.

You totally could! The machine isn't stirring hard or fast. I imagine you could hand stir it, if you are in the mood for a moderate upper body workout :)

You really are the best dang food show on the Internet. It's not only enjoyable and wholesome every time but you pick unique dishes that are just far enough outside daily familiarity. I make an anchovy onion sauce for pierogies which blows people away. And puts them to bed. The best pizza I've ever eaten has been a crust like this done perfectly, thin crisp bottom layer and a gradient of texture to the pillowy soft top covered in onions, tomatoes and garlic. NE Pennsylvania seems to have a lock on this kind of fried crust Sicilian. Can't find it nowhere else.

Greyswindir possible but unlikely. Maybe outside the edges but I used to live in S. Philly and it’s mostly Vietnamese not Italian as much. They call it old forge style pizza as well, so it’s a weird kind of hybrid of the two around Old Forge PA. You CAN find a great old style Tomato Pie at a bakery called Corropolese outside in Norristown. Very addictive once you try it.
