I'm italian and vegan. I used to ate pizza Margherita every week for my entire Life as everyone in my country. When i saw this video i cried. Thank u now i can finally taste my childhood and my traditions again.
I made your mozzarella cheese today and oh my goodness gracious!! It's SOOO good, like dangerously good. Wow. Thank you so much! PS. for those who wonder about using coconut oil or subbing for it: I used organic sunflower oil in mine because I didn't have deodorized coconut oil. It worked just fine.
just became a subscriber. My daughter is 13 and was vegetarian since she was 11. She recently decided to go vegan and I panicked. I was honestly clueless. So out pops RU-vid and Google for me.I like your channel because it's simple ingredients and I love to cook and bake.I am now teaching her how to make vegan recipes. My husband and I still eat meat but a lot less than we used to. We eat much healthier than before. I appreciate your budget-friendly recipes. So far she has loved everything I have made. Even my active duty Army combat medic husband is starting to like my vegan recipes. Thank you for your channel.
Just absolute WOWness. Best pizza I ate since I'm vegan, that's in almost 5 years! And best of all I made it from scratch and it cost me next to nothing! I added some pineapple, black olives and slices of vegan sausage that was lying around in my fridge. Thanks for the amazing recipe!
My wife and I made this today... holy moly it was literally the best pizza I’ve had (vegan and non-vegan)! And the mozzarella was 100x better than any other vegan cheese I’ve had. Congratulations on an awesome recipe 🤤🤤🤤🤤
I get my raw cashews for 7.99/pound, 1 lb chopped nuts is about 3 cups so the 1/4 cup of cashews it cost to make the cheese sauce was about 66¢, the 2 tablespoons of nutritional yeast cost 5¢ or less, and agar agar powder is dirt cheap if you choose to go to an asian grocer. This was definitely cheap although haters looooove to hate
I made this recipe before (btw it always surprises me how little cashews it requires) but this time didn’t have lemon juice, coconut oil or tapioca starch. I used olive oil and arrow root powder instead and skipped the lemon juice. It was still very delicious!
Made this tonight it was AMAZING! One of the best pizzas I've ever had. Have tried so many different vegan cheeses and never found one I was totally happy with that would melt and taste good.....till now....this is truly amazing.
Quick tip for the dough. After you’re done mixing you should soak the mixing bowl and let the dough rise in a clean bowl lightly coated with olive oil. This will make the clean up way easier and will save you a lot of time. It’s really annoying trying to clean dried dough.
Currently in the oven. Im so excited!!! EDIT: It actually tastes so good! Added the pepperoni recipe from "The easy vegan" and its so good. It did take me about 3-4 hours total though. (I cook slowly tho since i havent done too much of it until now)
Loved making this recipe! I used some vegan pesto instead of tomato sauce and topped it with thinly sliced mushrooms and tomatoes. For the cheese, I didn't seek out deodorized coconut oil but will in the future; the flavour of the cheese is super delicate so a hint of the coconut oil came through.
Just made this today! Was suspicious when i was heating it up on the hob as it rly didn’t taste like cheese. But on the pizza combined with the tomato sauce and dough (i made sourdough) it was bombbbb. I found it needed a good bit more salt sprinkled on top of it, but it really hit the spot for the fatty and salty feel that u get from cheese. I put it under the grill to really brown it up. I highly recommend this recipe!!
Oh mon dieu. Hier soir j'ai faite une pizza from scratch pis j'ai crié au ciel "MAIS POURQUOI JEAN PHILIPPE A PAS DE RECETTE DE PIZZA SUR SON SITE????". La première chose que je vois en me levant, c'est ca. Le ciel à répondu à mes prières.
Sabrina Mazerolle i took french for 2 yrs. Let me try to translate... 🤔 Oh my God. Last night i made a pizza from scratch worse that i had believed something sky "BUT WHY JEAN PHILIPPE is your recipe not on his website??? The first time i see when i get up, there it is! The sky answered my prayers. Did i get this translation right?!!! Okay so maybe i improvised with some words! I got stuck! Lol
The correct translation would be: Oh my god. Last night i made a pizza from scratch and screamed to the sky "BUT WHY DOES JEAN PHILIPPE DOESN'T HAVE A PIZZA RECIPE ON HIS WEBSITE????" first thing I see in the morning, it's this. The sky answered my prayers. You were close :)
this pizza cheese was SO GOOD. i've been searching for a yummy recipe and they're always always meh. ive tried so many recipes i've lost count. this one is so delicious, thank you SO MUCH!
i make this once a week atleast lol its so delicious and my brother (a non vegan) loves it more than any other pizza he’s tried! He’s always nagging me to make it lol. I love it! Amazing recipe !!!
@@ruthwilles3653 Hi. A bit late but here it goes: My opinion is that it would significantly negatively affect the outcome. The flavor and texture of cheese is due to, among other things, a high content of saturated fat. In this vegan imitation, that saturated fat comes from coconut oil. Without the oil it would become a flavorless slurry. At that point it would be better if you just threw some nooch on top of the pizza. But maybe you've found some way to make it :D
I just made the cheese intending to put it on the pizza for dinner tonight. I've eaten half the cheese with carrot sticks already. It's amazing! Thank you for sharing this recipe!
I made this yesterday, completely messed up the measurements etc and it was STILL great! The cheese is sheer wizardry, better than any restaurant I've been to!
6 years later and this is still my go-to mozzarella recipe! 😋 For anybody who is oil-free by the way, you can totally skip the coconut oil and it still tastes amazing❤
I always make ahead pizza crust from scratch and freeze them. I have one in the freezer now. Holy crap and I didn't say crap! I'm going to make this cheese and I'm having pizza night every weekend again! It looks so much better than paying $5 for a bag that won't melt!
Vegans can eat the same equally tasty food that they used to eat before. It is just made from plants and not dead animals. Me and my sister love pizzas and we make vegan pizza every other week. It is amazing.
Alright....got to add another comment. Made the pizza...and the sauce (comment in that video) and the mozzarella as per the video. Came out great. Needed to add more flour as the dough was sticky. Put it on a pizza stone which made the underside a bit too burnt. But that was my error. The edges of the pizza crust was fluffy which was delicious and held the toppings well. It was not stodgy and didn't feel all full and lethargic like the takeout places. So easy and straight forward! Yay again!
You are amazing. Thank you for this video on making this pizza. Sense going vegan & only eating organic I cook all my own food. Some things seem scary and or complicated but you take the fear out of cooking with your easy to follow videos & recipes index. you've given me a lot more yummy food options.Peace
Hey, our first Quebec vegan youtuber, yay!! (At least that I'm aware of...). Made this today, awesome! The maple syrup in the cheese was interesting and made a difference, the taste was less of a creme bechamel, and more of a "mozarella"...Merci and hope to see more of your recipes.
I have made a number of your recipes all with great success and I can't wait to try this one. Your videos give me hope and make me feel better about being vegan. Thank you for what you do.
@@yuvraj6422 I know, but where grows the coconut? And to plant it you have to destroy tons of old rainforest for it. In this rainforest are living hundreds of animals who might go extict through this and dozens of unknown plants. Im from germany and I dont buy stuff which has to travel around the world. I buy stuff from my region or near countrys, when I have to. But I dont want a growing of my ecological footprint and that would be when I didnt change some of my shopping behaiviors. And not only this. When you buy stuff which travel across the globe or destroy the oldest lung of our planet, you raise more of the climactic catastrophe. Think about it and if you can handle with your conscience.
I made this two days in a row now! The dough is enough for like 3 to 4 servings lol I like my crust not to thick but the cheese was absolutely amazing! My 4 year old is obsessed and will be having pizza for the whole week now 😂 lol thank you for this amazing recipe!
🙌 I made this and finally feel I've reached a milestone as a WFPB person. Even my sceptical nephews and 3 year old son were impressed. That boiling water trick is perfect. Thank you so much! 🤗
I saw some "weird" ingredients (which I don't have a clue where to.find) at the cheese recipe, byt I m going to track them down, google translate them, find them and buy a bunch just to make as many of these pizzas as possible!! Love your style (and recipes of course)!! 🌱
paddypat8 agar agar and tapioca!there you go! Tapioca is a totally new word,and agar agar is an ingredient I can't easily find in supermarkets here, I have seen it once in a recipe for tempeh. 😞
DILENA STRAY well it's good to try out new stuff 😊😊 Tapioca is the starch of manioc... if you can't find it in your standard supermarket an asian supermarket will definitely have it...they might also have agar agar... Where are you from? If I may ask 😊
I just made this today, and I would honestly have this other than some pizza place. I literally didn't care what my stomach thought, so I ate two 😂 The mozzarella didn't spread as it was supposed to, but that was perfectly fine! It was still amazing and I would recommend this so ANYONE who even has the THOUGHT of making this! Me and my family made it together through the cookbook and I will be so happy to make other recipes from the book in the future!! 😋
Just made the cheese from this vid (couldn't be bothered to make dough) and its super yummy! Melted but did NOT look the same at all 😂 "rustic" but my fav moz recipe so far
Man, this pizza recipe is cool but... the cheese!!! OOOH the cheese... since I made it I always need to have some in the refrigerator. I used cornstarch as I had no tapioca at the moment but it's so good! I use it for pasta and many other things, I even changed amount of lemon and syrup and made a cold cheesecake, now my wife is chasing me everyday to make more cheesecakes. Thank you so much for teaching us this!
You're a lifesaver!! My husband loves you as well now and told me to make this, so I'm gonna buy a pizzastone for the extra deliciousness and then I'll make your heavenly vegan pizzaaaahhhhh with the homemade sauce, omg can't wait man!!!
Just made it and my familly loved the pizza and the vegan mozzarella. Only added garlic powder and extra nutrional yeast. The pizza dough was perfectly crunchy and soft inside
Made this pizza tonight, with your homemade sauce! It was delicious! We couldn’t find tapioca nor Agar but we substituted with cornstarch and we really enjoyed it! Had to play around a bit with it since we hadn’t made pizza before but super happy with the results. Thank you for sharing your recipe!
@@Lisa-wb2ms Get the agar agar in an asian food store and grind it up into flakes yourself. Less expensive. Also the tapioca starch makes it more stetchy than cornstarch - also found in your local asian grocery store.
Made this today with a different crust. This cheese recipe will be a regular part of our diet. I bet it would be awesome in a grilled cheese sandwich. 🍕😋
I made this pizza cheese twice already and am amazed by how easy it is to make and how it totally takes care of my cravings for mozzarella cheese! Thanks so much for this video and your great recipes! Looking forward to watching and TRYING more of them! =D
Hey Jean-Phillippe, I did have a quick question. Do you know if the cheese can be frozen? I made a double-batch the other day and realized I won't be able to use it all. Have you ever tried it, and did it turn out ok, even after frozen?
I think it would be great if you demonstrated this recipe with sourdough starter rather than commercial yeast...not that commercial yeast isn't good in a pinch but still, I think it would make a great addendum to this video. :-)
But it wouldn't be pizza dough then. Pizza dough IS a yeast dough. If you make it with sourdough, it will be flammkuchen. That is made with sour dough.
So I feel I’ve done this enough to review, the cheese is a great vegan cheese, I tried with agar and it gave it a weird after taste so I omit it and use another tbsp of tapioca starch although it might have been the brand of agar I used. I use grape seed oil instead because it doesn’t have as much saturated fat, instead of lemon juice I use rice vinegar, I feel lit gives it more if the cheeses tang instead of a lemony tang, and I use agave instead of maple syrup because I felt the maple syrup still made it taste like cashews, also had extra pinch of salt, my version is slightly less firm but it’s still ooey and gooey when it comes out of the oven. for me this was a great base recipe for vegan cheese and I always go back to it even tho I tweak it here and there
Just go for it. I don't think besides all the salt, and yeast and everything else the taste will be to strong. Also it's more natural and therefore healthier not to use deodorized oil.
Just made this! Thumbs up, tastes amazing! Finally vegan pizza that tastes like the non vegan pizza, I am able to enjoy pizza again! Thank you for your videos and sharing your incredible recipes with us, you are truly an amazing chef.
Ahh and boo allergic to coconut. Maybe macadamia or olive oil? I’ve used olive oil to replace coconut oil when I don’t have the unrefined to make tapioca cheese so should work.
I’ve made it without any oil. But I’ve used olive oil too. I love pizza! If I could eat it every other day, I would. Every other day I would eat a curry.
I have just made it today and it was perfect and delicious 😍 Dind’t even wait for it to harden in the refrigerator, just put directly on pizza and it turned out fantastic!
I made this a couple days ago and i LOVE the mozzarella! mine didn't melt/blob around like your's did, i think bcs i cooked it too long in the pot/too thick (and i used olive oild bcs it's all i had)...but when i took the pizza out of the oven i was able to easily "pop" the crust of the cheese blobs and smooth it around...I've been eating this mozzarella in random meals ever since and only love it MORE. thank you so much...i had given up on experimenting with cheese (so had the agar agar etc) and am SO grateful for this video :) going to browse your channel and see if anything else pops up...and of course subscribed. also the trick with the dough rising in the oven with a pot of boiling water is AMAZING! i run my house pretty cold and whenever i make bread i have to turn the heater on just for it and keep the dough right next to the heater...no more! so THANK YOU, though you already said you're welcome XD
Made this a couple of times now. The best vegan mozzarella recipe I've come across so far and a very simple dough recipe, without all the fuss and extended proving time of others. I do tend to knock it back once though, give it a second quick knead and let it prove for a second time for at least an hour, that's just me though. I blitz my tomato sauce in a blender to make it smooth. Have to drizzle some olive oil on top just before it goes in the oven and add the basil leaves at the last 5 mins of cooking. But a super vegan Neapolitan style pizza recipe.
When you burn your mouth on pizza, coffee, tea, whatever, take a spoonful (or one packet) of real sugar (not Splenda, stevia, any fake sweetener), put it on your tongue, close your mouth, and just let it dissolve. The pain will be cut in half, if not gone completely, by the time the sugar is gone. Been doing this for thirty years. Just did it yesterday (scalding hot tea). Still works like a charm. Remember, it MUST be real sugar.
"Its cheap if you make it from scratch" *pulls out cashews, nutritional yeast and agar*. I mean im sure it tastes good but that's not what cheap looks like to me.
ikr, where I live, 200g of cashew is 7 euros and a pack of nutritional yeast is 7 euros also, agar is around 5 euros ... it's exepensive in a short time but it profits when it is to be used for many times
Maja the Psychic If you're vegan, you should already have these ingredients on hand. Yes, it's expensive to buy all this stuff when you run out, but you have to figure in the cost of each ingredient per the measurements used in the recipe. By and large, it's cheaper to make as much of your own stuff as possible.
OMG! I just made the cheese and it was the best I've had. I was about to go to a vegan Pizzeria but decided to make this cheese instead. Best decision ever! I was a little low on funds so I made a poor man's pizza with a flatbread and pizza sauce I already had in the house. But it was great the cheese just took it to another level thanks!
I've given it a go and the dough is superb. Crispy and crunchy on the outside and very soft on the inside. The trick is to keep enough moisture in the dough so that it sticks slightly to the touch. I backed my pizza in a preheated oven at 200C for 20 min. Thank you dude! P.S I used wholegrain and it worked just as fine.
Just made this pizza, the cheese and the tomato sauce today. Was so good. Got good comment from everyone at home. Thank you for sharing such wonderful recipe.
I did this, and it turned out amazing. The cheese is REALLY delicious (and not only 'good for being vegan') and even though it has expensive or weird ingredients, the amounts used are really low so its not really pricey.
Sooo I doubled the recipe of the cheese and it turned out extremely salty so if there’s anyone out there doubling the recipe I’d recommend keeping the salt at 1 tsp. I didn’t accidentally use tbsp, I checked! The dough is good. I made my own tomato sauce because I didn’t like how many veggies were in his, never heard of celery in tomato sauce but I’m very curious if anyone made it and liked it! Really love this channel
