My husband has celiac disease, so we are gluten free at our house. This is the first cauliflower crust we've found that works! Made it last night and it was a winner. Thank you, Chef John!!

Thank you! I have a 6 year old boy who cannot eat wheat. Thank you for helping us bring pizza back to the table. It took a couple tries....and it is different, but it gets eaten and no more "I'm sorry you can't eat pizza" heartbreak.
This fits perfectly into my low carb diet! Your psychology of low expectations (e.g. it won't taste like pizza) will likely produce happy surprises (it tastes great). That's an excellent way to avoid disappointment while keeping one upbeat when dieting! Thanks for the useful recipe in a video filled with great humor!
where's the LOVE button? I like Cauliflower. I've tricked my husband into eating mashed cauliflower many times. Has a subtle taste but it's pretty good. Clean eating is much more important in our house. Thanks for the video!
I tried this recipe last night and it was awesome! Chef John, you are totally right about how this does not really taste like a traditional pizza but it was a great way to transport pizza toppings to my mouth. I'm gluten intolerant so this recipe was a pretty tasty substitute.
Just made this last night and it was ridiculously good! I modified it a tad and put twice as much cheese so you know it was amazing! I omitted the goat cheese since I didn't have it on hand. I topped it with onions, bell peppers, mushrooms and Trader Joes Veggie Pizza Burger patties, crumbled up. Let's just say my family gobbled it up and there were absolutely no leftovers. I've reviewed lots of cauliflower pizza crust recipes out there and I think cooking the cauliflower first helps to draw a lot of the water out + actually squeezing the water out in the towel helps to create a much crisper crust, if that's what you're going for. After cooking the crust, we then flipped it like you said, but transferred it to a pizza pan with the small wholes in in to hopefully help the crispy factor. Next time we'll def have to make a much bigger pie! Thanks for a great recipe!
Put a lot of olive oil on the pan you transferred to, and you'll get a very crispy bottom on the crust. You can use a cookie sheet instead of your pizza pan with holes. It will work much better.
JUST MADE THIS! And it tastes amazing! It came out crispy and perfect on my first attempt. Thanx so much all the way from South Africa! Definitely gained a new subscriber :)
Literally... Whenever my anxiety or insomnia overtakes me, Chef John's voice brings me back down to reality in the present. His voice is so soothing that all therapists should study his technique.
I made this the other day with a little more mozarella cheese in the batter and no goat cheese. I also didn't cook the cauliflower before baking it - I just had my boyfriend squeeze it like there was no tomorrow. Worked out perfectly! Also had to change the baking sheet when I flipped it, but there was no problems picking it up and eating it like normal! It turned out amazing! :D I also mixed in some good chilli powder and crushed garlic to the crust!
Because of some health issues with my young son, our family is doing the Keto Diet. One of my biggest fears, was not being able to cook with chef John, but alas, this recipe will work. Thanks!!
Love this so much!!! Thank you! I just made cauliflower crust and it came out SO limp! The site I was using failed to mention squeezing the life out of the cooked cauliflower flour! I'll be doing this again this weekend and I look forward to being able to pick up my pizza instead of eating it with a fork! =D
me: hey, so we're still on for dinner at mine? guests: yes ! me: ok, good. we're having cauliflower. guests: something came up, looks like were going to have to postpone.
I made the serious eats modern mac & cheese, but sub'd cauliflower and brought it to a gathering. It was a winner. The bacon I added to it probably helped.
Made this last night, crust was much better than others I have tried, Getting the excess water out of the cauliflower made all the difference! The other recipes I have tried didn't do that, crust was firmer and much tastier!
I don’t know what you’re talking about, chef John. I had cauliflower pizza just recently for the first time, and it was the best pizza I’ve ever eaten.
This is the best looking cauliflower dough I've seen. I've hesitated to make it because no one can ever pick up a piece to eat it. Definitely going to make it your way,
I have watched this video several times and was awesomified because it was the best out out there. NO One was cooking the cauliflower or prepping it like this, so I was hopeful. So, tonight (as I type this) my crust is pre-baking! Though, I changed up/added some texture ingredients to the recipe. One reason is to stretch out the recipe size, and the other to get a more roasty solid texture. I like crunch!
Ok you are brilliant. Thank you so much for this. I have trawled through alot, alot of videos trying out cauliflower pizza crusts but yours is by far, by far the easiest and most superior of them all
Dear John! Where ever do you get these ideas? So crazy I will try it because I trust you. You have never failed me yet. My family loves your recipes; they work perfectly every time and they are sooooo good!
THANK YOU for saying too much sauce ruins the pizza - I hate it when all my toppings slide off with a layer of wet tomato gunk this looks so good - think I will give it a try
You are the youtuber that makes me laugh the most and you're thing isn't even comedy it's food! This was hilarious and awesome, now i know what to do with my leftover cauliflower rice tomorrow
finally it worked perfectly, thank you!!! though I have to say, it took me a way bigger cauliflower (almost twice as big, planned to do a whole sheet, but also ended up with a normal Pizza) and only 20 minutes of baking time for the crust... guess the recipe depends heavily on how hard you squeezed out the water... keep you eyes on the dough guys!
jewsdo Yes, wrong Malcolm Mc. It was Malcolm McLaren (former Sex Pistols manager, amongst many other things), not the actor Malcolm McDowell, famous for A Clockwork Orange and tons of other great films. McDowell is my favourite Malcolm. But he doesn't have to be yours. You are, after all, the Captain Cook of your Malcolm Mc.
I just made this & it came out great! Although I made it a traditional pie using one cauliflower head. I think my next food experiment will be w/a sicilian pie instead using two heads. For more cauliflower 🍕 more toppings! Thanks Chef Jon!
but its not pizza... ive tried it it tastes nothing like pizza. its like he said, "dont tell your friends theyre coming over for pizza, tell them theyre coming over for cauliflower"
He never once said this is "as good" or "better". He even deliberately puts air quotes on dough lol. But as someone living pretty low carb and tried making cauli pizza crusts before this is the best one I've seen! Thanks Chef John :)
slowvomit i served it to people without saying it what it was. they said it was the best homemade pizza they ever had :p but hey. we're all different :)
Tried your recipe today and it was a hit!!!! We barely tasted the cauliflower on the part where the topings were. Will make this again for sure (even though I found it a little time consuming)
Can't wait to try this! I've always hated the taste of bread (yest and flour), so I've had a love hate relationship with pizza. This looks so perfect to try!!
Check out the recipe: www.allrecipes.com/Recipe/236600/Chef-Johns-Cauliflower-Pizza-Crust/
You are very fabulous.
This voice... Holds mysterious optimism which I've been lacking in my life
I’m watching this during the COVID19 lockdown...I feel the same way as you about his voice.
My husband has celiac disease, so we are gluten free at our house. This is the first cauliflower crust we've found that works! Made it last night and it was a winner. Thank you, Chef John!!
You know there’s gluten free flour well maybe not 6 years ago
I am celiac too and hope to make it soon!
Love this guy's voice... really entertaining ...easily the best presented recipe I've seen on TH-cam..favorited!
I made one of these a few Years back, they are incredibly good! A BBQ sauce chicken & pepper one is very scrumptious but loving this pepperoni concept

Or apple pie.

Add minced garlic to the cauliflower - delicious! Also, make it in a baking pan and call it "Italian Cauliflower Casserole" - gets 'em every time.

You evil genius..tricking your husband into eating his veggies =)
They ain't his veggies. They are hers.
I tricked my nephews into eating spaghetti i made from yellow squash. I love it when they don't know they're eating healthy.
Spicy artisan hipster salami. That's going to be my new band name.
Salami is better on a pizza than pepperoni.
@@gusgrizzel8397 Correction. ..artisan hipster salami type pizza topping 😀👍
Pepperoni is salami
It's a great recipe for people on low carb diets.

Shidah Izumi mostly i watch beauty channels but somehow i like this channel, ro, and laura, too. simple, fun and easy to follow :)
cauliflower rice made by the sorted food guys was also very good and resembled couscous.
Yay! I'm subscribed to both of you! Ochikeron, you have good taste in food and videos...lol.
Oh my, Ochikeron here! :0
"make sure you know better" i'm crying, chef John always keeps it so real.
Literally just finished making this, and it was AWESOME!!!

I don't usually watch cooking vids but I watched this all the way through. Really enjoyed the narration and how easy it looks to make this.
I think is the best good looking cauliflower pizza I have ever seen

Round the outside, round the outside, round the outside!
Considering he flips it over, and the raised outside is on the bottom, it seems to me that it loses its benefit somewhat...
@@1973TJM I think that's more of a method to keep the outside rim from overcooking through the whole process
This looks like a job for meeeee...
rinleez hee hee! I’m glad I’m not alone...
Gave it a go and it was great! I didn't cook the crust long enough, the middle was good but the edges were perfect. Thanks!
Your cutting board turned to magic flowing wood-water at the end. O_o
That was the best commentary I've ever heard, EVER!
I love your commentary on these videos
I LOVE LOVE the way you talk! Hugs from Dominican Republic!!

Spent an hour prepping this only for it to fall apart and other parts stick to the pan. Lovely.
Eli stick to the pan? Someone didn’t pay attention! You don’t put this directly on a pan, you use PARCHMENT PAPER!! Duh!
finally it worked perfectly, thank you!!! though I have to say, it took me a way bigger cauliflower (almost twice as big, planned to do a whole sheet, but also ended up with a normal Pizza) and only 20 minutes of baking time for the crust... guess the recipe depends heavily on how hard you squeezed out the water... keep you eyes on the dough guys!
Added half teaspoon of yeast for a bread flavor, definitely knocked back the smell and taste of cauliflower and smelt bready..☺️
Spicy artisan hipster salami. Im dying over here. Love this video.
I love, love, cauliflower pizza. Your right don't expect a real pizza flavour but it's own flavour is delish. Highly recommend. Great video!
Just watch out for bears ... HAHAHHA love this channel
Tried this last night and it was delicious! For someone who's been on a fairly strict diet for the last 4 months it is was amazing and quite filling!

who catches themselves talking like chef John while cooking?
I’m so glad they have this in the freezer section in safe way now , so much easier
This recipe in the beginning, the cauliflower really stunk my whole house, but at the ending the pizza tasted like haven
FINALLY a proper Cauliflower pizza dough. Thank you!!!
LMAO "hipster salami", your awesome man
I am going to try this.. and I love your presentation. I laughed often..a good thing!
Chef, you might want to advertise this as a low-carb pizza! As that, it's great! :P
but its not pizza... ive tried it it tastes nothing like pizza. its like he said, "dont tell your friends theyre coming over for pizza, tell them theyre coming over for cauliflower"
mesahusa...and that concerns the question how?
MaRaTheMeyvn that would be false advertising, its not low carb pizza.
Yes, just like advertising gluten-free bread as bread or soy milk as milk is false advertising ;)
MaRaTheMeyvn exactly.
He never once said this is "as good" or "better". He even deliberately puts air quotes on dough lol. But as someone living pretty low carb and tried making cauli pizza crusts before this is the best one I've seen! Thanks Chef John :)
I never though I would say this but this is better than real pizza=D
nah

saying what it was*
They were being nice ;) But hey, if you and your guests enjoyed it, that's all that really matters.
nope. they are always honest. lol. i have made things they didnt like too

well I'm not much of a health nut, my first priority is always taste...but I want to try this out
howd it taste

sorry I haven't even gotten around to this yet...now that the weather is getting tolerable, I definitely wanna do this for the first spring gathering
