Cooking Education Part I: Pizza Rotation for 1 Pizza
printer friendly version
With
a basic understanding of a few key points cooking pizzas in a stone-hearth oven is
easy. The first lesson is Pizza Rotation for 1 Pizza.
(Then we will move on to
Pizza Rotation for 3-6 pizzas.)
Equipment note: The following example represents a
Mt. Adams 5' Gas-Fired oven, although the concept can be adapted
to any of the other Mountain Series ovens.
Keep in mind the
Mt. Baker 6' and
Mt. Rainier 7' ovens will have
larger zones, while the Mt. Chuckanut
4' will have smaller zones.
  For
this example we keep the pizzas at approximately 10-12". More
details about our pizzas can be found in the
Recipe Library.
Here is a quick overview of
Pizza Rotation for 1 pizza.
