Cooking
1.Baking pizza
- Smear some olive oil or cooking oil on the surface of pizza peeKnot included ) to avoid sticking.
- Put the pizza on pizza peel and make your pizza with your desired toppings.
- Put the pizza in the pizza stone with pizza peel, then close the door and bake for about 15 seconds,
- After 15 seconds, rotate pizza 90 degrees with pizza peel or baking tools, then close the door to bake another 15 seconds. Repeat the same process until the pizza is rotated and baked 360 degrees.
- Open the door and take out the pizza. Now, enjoy your pizza!
After the first round of baking is completed, if you want to continue to cook another pizza, please control the baking time around 10 seconds between each rotating since the temperature inside the oven reaches up to 350 degrees.
Remember:
-
When the pellet fuel in the pizza oven is buming, the door must be closed unless food needs to be put in or taken out. This is to prevent too much air coming in from the oven door, which may cause heavy smoke inside the fire box assembly(E&G) and hopper assembly(D).
