Use a perforated pizza pan (or pizza screen) and you'll need no pizza peel and no pizza stone... a pizza stone for a home oven is also a gimmick, you cannot turn a home oven into a brick oven, can't be done, only the bricks for brains believe they can. |

Some people really seem to love pizza and make it often. They're the ones who want these things. I don't think about pizza enough to care one way or the other. My middle brother used to try to give me foodie gifts. I'm really not into all that stuff/gadgets. Years ago he gave me a pizza stone. He probably he saw it on some cooking show. I had your basic, garden variety apartment electric stove/oven. It worked fine but it was nothing to write home about. I tried to use the pizza stone but even with a good sprinkling of cornmeal, the dough/crust stuck like crazy. It sure didn't do that when baked on a nicely seasoned heavy pizza pan. Of course you have to oil the pan. I had one of those perforated pizza pans at one time. I really only found them to work well with frozen pizza. But frozen pizza is not what sf is talking about.

I love pizza and have perfected my own to the point that my family and I prefer it to the product of every pizza palace in town. It doesn't keep me from eating pizza out, but it does make me wonder why I continue to do it - so I'll call it shopping the competition. ![]() > > My middle brother used to try to give me foodie gifts.

People often make the mistake of forming their pizza on the cold stone and then putting it into the oven. I don't know if that's what you did or not. You always need to put the cold stone into a cold oven (treat it like a clay pot in that respect) and then turn the oven up as far as it will go - which is at least 450°. A pizza stone needs to heat up in the oven for 45-60 min and tiles need at least 30. I have double ovens. The bottom shelf in one is lined with the unglazed tiles I've used for the last 20 years, the bottom shelf of the other has a huge rectangular stone on it and they live in my ovens 24-7-365. > > I had one of those perforated pizza pans at one time.

Not sure why it's still around, but I use it from time to time. Making scratch pizza at home isn't the big fat deal that it used to be. I still make my own pizza dough, but people who live in metropolitan areas can buy decent pizza dough in bags for just a couple of bucks at the local supermarket these days. Buy the dough, buy the toppings and make fresh pizza after work. This is the last pizza I made. http://tinypic.com/usermedia.php?uo=...c#.U7WwA7GTGNs Those chunks are eggplant. I used leftover ratatouille and it was delicious. -- All you need is love. But a little chocolate now and then doesn't hurt. |

Agree. Since you're a guy, I don't expect that you've been to too many Pampered Chef parties. And thankfully neither have I. Much of what they sell is the same stuff you can get elsewhere but they sell it for a lot more. Some women just eat this stuff up because they seem to love home parties. And their biggest seller? The pizza stone! And what do they use it for? Not pizza! Nope. Frozen fish sticks. I couldn't believe it. These women were going on and on about how great the fish sticks were when baked on this thing. I don't think any of them actually ever made a pizza. They just sent out for it. I was the only one at the party who did not buy the pizza stone. And they all looked at me in amazement when I said that I do not buy fish sticks. Well, that's not entirely true. I think I may have bought 3-4 boxes of them in the past oh...35 year or so. Not enough to worry about how well they come out. Another of their seemingly useless devices was the cucumber reamer. The lady putting on the party said that you inserted it in a cucumber and it reamed out the middle. You could then insert a carrot into it, cut it in slices and serve them at a party. Everyone oohed and ahed except me. I raised my hand and said, "But what holds the carrot in place? Cream cheese?" They all sort of blinked at me and then she repeated, "No. You insert the carrot into it!" Then she smiled. I'm sure that you all here can just as easily imagine why this wouldn't work but nobody there got it. Those are the sorts of people these devices are made for, IMO. People who don't really cook. |

Pizza is a product of the poverty-stricken south, not the affluent north, so that Venice excelled is surprising. Esposito is a common Italian surname implying that the holder (or his forebear) is a foundling. "Esposito" means "the exposed one," one left on the church steps for the priests and or nuns to raise. |

Don't know of any place where perforated metal is a no-no, but it's possible, since "smooth, impervious, free of cracks and crevices, nonporous, nonabsorbent, nonreactive, corrosion resistant, nontoxic, and cleanable" or similar is common for food contact surfaces, and somebody could decide that holes make it fail a few of those. Some places, wooden handles on pizza peels aren't acceptable, let alone wooden pizza peels. |

Ordered a different pizza in Venice and wasn't impressed. The pizza I liked best over there was in Sicily. The crust was a bit too thick for me, but the it was passable over all. Crust is my big thing and I've decided I prefer (my own) California style thin crust. -- All you need is love. But a little chocolate now and then doesn't hurt. |

You shouldn't have excess flour on your dough anyway. Any such should fall off when you transfer the dough to the peel, and either the peel should be dusted heavily with corn meal, or you should be using parchment paper. > A google search also brought up a site with instructions on how to make > your own perforated peel. I wouldn't take a perforated peel as a gift. If the dough is soft enough and the holes large enough, the dough will sag into the holes and not slide off easily. Plus, aluminum peels never remain perfectly flat. The edges of the holes will deform and snag the dough, again preventing it from sliding. IMO, it's a bad idea, period. -- Larry |

Word on the street is that this is exactly what happens if you have soft dough and/or a heavily loaded pizza. It's for lightly topped pizza on a relatively dry dough.

Wish I knew what the problem was, but I don't. I found a similar video on Youtube this morning that I'll post in a new thread: same guy, same demonstration, different video. He's hot and tired in this one and doesn't get into the details he went into on the other one - but you can see a perforated peel and he mentions why they use it. This one is a standard perforated peel, but the one in the video you can't play looks like someone drilled big holes in it and that's what I want. -- All you need is love. But a little chocolate now and then doesn't hurt. |

The peel is just a conveying tool. Slide off into the oven, slide the peel under to take it out, then slide it off again. I don't see how perforations would change anything of the wood works. |

Did you watch the video and listen to what he said? I have a wooden peel and I have a cookie sheet that I've used as a metal peel. Based on my experience with them, I want one with holes in it too. I found a metal peel on the Target site that's under $20. I will buy it or something similar and then persuade a certain person close to me to drill big holes in it. ![]() -- All you need is love.

Based on my experience with a wooden peel, I think there are a lot of people lacking experience. |

Why not tell us? |
