OVEN DOOR
- The door is very effective at adjusting heat intensity:
by closing and opening it the temperature may be
better managed.
- If the fire is too high and comes out from the oven
mouth, use the door to adjust the flame.
COOKING
- Always preheat the oven before cooking; heat for 15 minutes, or until the thermometer reaches 350-400°C /
660-750°F; once the temperature has been reached, wait a few minutes for it to stabilise to ensure that the
oven floor warms up properly.
- Calculate longer cooking time for cold or ventilated days or high altitudes. Calculate a shorter cooking time if
the external temperature is particularly high.
- Cooking times vary according to weather conditions or the amount, dimensions and shape of the food to be
cooked.

ADVICE FOR COOKING PIZZA
Wait for around 20 minutes after lighting the oven with a high quantity of wood to reach the optimum temperature
for cooking an excellent Neapolitan pizza (with an increased level of moisture):
-
A ir temperature of 400°C/750°F,
- Refractory floor temperature of 350°C/660°F.
Once the optimal temperature is reached, it is sufficient to add a few small sized wooden logs every 3-5 minutes
with a vivid flame. The oven will maintain a constant temperature and you can begin inserting the pizzas one after
another.
- Check that there is no build-up of grease, and, if present, remove to prevent the grease from catching fire
- During cooking do not lean over the open oven and do not place hands or fingers on the front edge of the oven.
-
D uring cooking the oven will have high temperatures, therefore, it should never be moved or left unattended.
