Recommendations to use Electric Pizza Oven
According to the opinions of different experts, the ovens to make a good
pizza can be indifferently wood or electric pizza oven, provided that in both
cases the oven reaches the required temperature of at least 300 ° C to give the
pizza its main features in a good Italian pizza, it should be thin, crispy and
soft. This depends on several factors, but a very important one; A part of the
flour used, and the growth of the base, is the oven.
Baking a pizza using an electric pizza oven pass through different types
of heat transfer; by conduction in the first place, this is the transfer of
heat, which is transmitted directly between the refractory surface of the oven
and the pizza by direct contact. Secondly, due to convection in contact with
the hot air that is inside the oven. And the third type by heat transfer, which
is the reflection of the heat that the flame transmits. The last type of heat
transfer is the difference, mainly between cooking in a wood oven and an
electric one, as the heat from the flame in the wood transmits a different
aroma and roasted mass. This type of cooking also has its detractors due to the
generation of dioxins, analyzed and debated topic for over 40 years, which even
today is not entirely proven. Now that we know to choose either an electric
furnace or a wood, there are a variety of brands on the market that allow us to
select different ovens, but the choice will depend on several variables that
will describe below.
Electric Pizza Oven
When choosing an electric pizza oven
is recommended to buy ovens that can reach 500 ยบ C, because when the oven reaches that
temperature, it self-cleaning and leaves the walls completely white with no
need for the chef to clean any leftovers from the flour that can be burned in
the baking process. The cooking of the pizza in an electric pizza oven furnace
should be done at a temperature of 300 ° C, so the base has time to be crisp as
the mozzarella melts, the normal cooking time is 3 to 4 minutes. We recommend
the use of mozzarella with a correct index of fat and moisture balanced to
avoid to burn out before the pizza is crunchy. When the pizza is baked in the
oven if it moves or turns, it always has to be at the same place where it was
initially, as this area has dropped fat and the temperature is optimal there,
and if move it elsewhere it would burn.
In the process of cooking the pizza in the electric pizza oven, we know
that a pizza is being cooked from below by contact with the base refracting,
this causes the dry up of the base making it crispy. Above by the contact with
the hot air will cause it to melt the mozzarella and cook the different
ingredients, at this point is very important to measure the time for each side
of the pizza, it should be on the side of heat, to avoid burning the mass on
one side. Flip necessary to avoid it, but as we said it must be placed on the
original site to prevent burning of the base.
