The baking time depends on the type of dough, the pizza toppings, the number of pizzas to be baked at the same
time and the ambient conditions where the pizza oven is located (temperature, draft-free place, etc.).
Under normal conditions the pizza is ready in about 5 to 7 minutes. It is best to slide the hot pizzas onto a flat
plate. Careful! The spatula is hot. Place the empty, hot spatula on a heat-resistant surface.
Turn off the Pizzarette® after use by pulling the plug from the socket and allow the Pizzarette® to cool down at
least 30 minutes before cleaning and storing.
RECIPE
Pizza preparation:
Pizza dough (for 4 people)
500 gr. white flour
1 tsp salt
4 tsp olive oil
20 gr. fresh yeast or 1 satchel of dried yeast
250 ml lukewarm water
Combine the flour, salt and oil in a bowl. If using fresh yeast, dissolve it in the water and mix until smooth, then
combine with the flour. If using dried yeast, mix it directly with the flour and then add the oil and water. When
all the ingredients are mixed, knead the dough well by hand and continually pull and stretch it. You could also
use a mixer with dough hooks or a food processor. Form the dough into a ball and leave covered for 45 minutes
in a warm place until it has risen to double the size. Sprinkle the dough with a bit of flour; roll it out to 3 mm
thickness. Turn the dough around a few times and sprinkle with flour in order to prevent sticking; form pizzas
with the cutting ring. Put the rounds on a plate with grease-proof paper and lots of white flour between them
to avoid sticking. While the dough is rising you can prepare the remaining ingredients.
Tomato sauce:
1 can peeled tomatoes
1 small can tomato paste
Salt, pepper, oregano
2 tbsp olive oil
2 pressed cloves of garlic
Finely chop the peeled tomatoes and mix them with the other ingredients.
Possible toppings:
Mozzarella, grated parmesan cheese, grated Gouda cheese, basil, arugula, olives, mushrooms, anchovies, capers,
pineapple, artichoke hearts, bell peppers, onions, tomatoes, ham, salami, smoked salmon, shrimp, canned tuna.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
1. Allow the hot appliance to cool down at least 30 minutes before cleaning and storing.
2. When hot, the terracotta dome must never come into contact with water or be placed on a cold surface
(danger of cracks). Allow the hot appliance to cool down before cleaning and storing.
3. Normally, the terracotta dome does not have to be cleaned. If cleaning is necessary, use clear, warm water
and a brush.
4. Caution: The terracotta dome is sensitive to breakage and is not suitable for a dishwasher. The pizza stone
can be cleaned with a dry brush and if needed with a damp cloth. Never immerse into water or rinse directly
under the tap.
5. Rinse the pizza spatulas with warm water and a brush. Don’t put any parts in the dishwasher.
