The pizza oven is specially designed for cooking pizza, the fixed ceramic stone base allows you to cook a perfectly crisp pizza in around 5 minutes.The key to cooking a crisp pizza is the stone base, the stone will absorb the moisture from the base of your pizza ensuring you have an evenly cooed pizza right from the middle to the ends. The pizza oven will get to around 300 degrees which will cook your pizza quickly and evenly every time. You can use many different bases in the pizza maker, from pita bread pizzas, fresh or frozen dough. It works equally well with Lebanese bread or wraps as bases. Why not use a bread maker or mix by hand to make a batch of fresh dough you will be amazed at the results. A recipe for pizza dough can be found in the instruction manual.
