Grill & Cooking Supplies
Prep Directions
- For the pizza peel we use a 80/20 blend of flour and large grind polenta to help keep pizza from sticking and help it slide onto the pizza stone easier. We use about ½ Tbsp per pizza, onto the pizza peel.
- Pre Slice the Mozzarella Cheese
- Place on a paper towel and place into the fridge for 6-8 hours or overnight, this dires out the cheese and prevents watery spots on the pizza
- Hand tear the cheese before use
Cooking Directions
- Pre Heat the Ooni Koda for approx. 15 minutes to reach 932 degrees ambient and 500+ degrees cooking stone temperature
- Use the Ooni Infrared thermometer if available
- Pizza will be cooked at a high heat
- Building the pizza – this process should take 30-45 seconds max
- Fast building will ensure the dough doesn’t get wet (from toppings) and stick
- Allow the dough to soften (covered) at room temp for approx. 1-2 hours from the fridge
- Hand stretch the dough to a very thin dough and place onto the floured pizza peel
- Top as follows:
- Pizza Sauce
- Fishy Fishy Herb Rub
- Mozzarella Cheese Pieces
- Basil, Hand torn
- Garnish after cooking with parmesan cheese
- Launch the pizza onto the middle of the pizza stone
- Keep the temperature at the same temperature setting to help ensure consistent temp and easy recovery during cooking
- After 20 seconds, grab the pizza with the pizza peel
- Rotate the pizza 180 degrees and cook the pizza for another 20 seconds
- Rotate one more time
- Continue to cook the pizza to your desired doneness – Process should take 60 seconds total cooking time. Depending on desired doneness
- Grab the pizza with the pizza peel
- Slide onto your cutting board, let rest for 20 seconds and cut into 6-8 slices
- Garnish with the shaved parmesan if desired
