    This is a delicious recipe and the prep is so simple. For the sauce, I used whole peeled tomatoes, drizzled a little evoo, garlic and salt, used my hands to mash up the tomatoes and that was it. No cooking, just poured it on the crust and it was incredible! I cooked at 450 degrees and my dough was not soggy at all - in fact, it crunched when we bit into it. Our homemade pizzas have never done that before. The 00 flour and high temps made a huge difference.

    This pizza was incredibly easy to make and simply delicious! I loved the episode and was thrilled to see the recipe online. The dough was lovely (I used "00" flour, and easy to prepare and I loved the no cook sauce. I love Neapolitan pizza and usually make a sauce similar to this but with canned tomatoes. This was a nice change. I used Campari tomatoes on the vine and quartered them as they were bigger than the variety she used. The pizza does come out wet but I don't see this as a problem. That's how they like it in Naples. I've gotten used to it and now love it. This one is a keeper! My husband loved it too and it's very pretty as well. Next time I might try the oven at 500 degrees though which is what Tyler said Giovanna used on the show. I'll see if I prefer it. Happy cooking!

    We make this on a regular basis. The crust is the best.

    This was very easy to make yet it was way too salty tasting. I'm not sure if it was the cheese I used. I didn't have fresh parm. so I used pecorina/romano.

    I was so impressed with this recipe when I saw Tyler making it with the old italian woman. When I made it I was amazed at the taste because it was so fresh and simple. I wish I could have tried the tomatoes they had on the show but since I can't I buy the ones that are on a vine and roast them in the oven. This causes them to burst and gives a little extra flavoring. Love it!!!

    Liked it sort of. I don't know if I'm not quite following the recipe right or if my oven doesn't get hot enough to make the dough crisp. Center was soggy. Besides that tasted good.

    We make this pizza almost every week at my house. This recipe is responsible for my being comfortable with making pizza at home! I can't even remember the last time we ordered out for pizza.

    To make it easier, we use a bread machine to mix up the dough.

    Giovanna, the woman in the episode making this pizza with Tyler, is adorable, too!
