Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is a perforated pizza peel paddle and why does it matter?

A: A perforated pizza peel paddle features small holes across the stainless steel blade that allow excess flour and semolina to fall through as you slide the pizza into the oven. This prevents a floury, burnt base and ensures your crust comes out perfectly crisp. The perforations also make the paddle lighter and easier to maneuver compared to a solid blade.

Q: What size pizzas does this paddle fit?

A: This pizza peel measures approximately 74 × 30.5 cm (29.13 × 12.01 inches), making it well-suited for pizzas up to 12 inches in diameter. It also accommodates artisan loaves, flatbreads, focaccia, and large pastries.

Q: Can this pizza paddle be used in outdoor pizza ovens and on grills?

A: Yes! The stainless steel blade is highly heat-tolerant and suitable for use in home ovens, wood-fired outdoor pizza ovens, and backyard grills. The wooden handle provides a comfortable, heat-insulating grip for safe handling near open flames and high-temperature cooking environments.

Q: How do I clean and care for this stainless steel pizza peel?

A: The stainless steel blade is easy to wipe clean with a damp cloth or sponge after use. To prolong the life of the wooden handle, hand wash only and avoid prolonged soaking. Dry thoroughly before storing.
