Traditional Pizza Oven

The traditional oven has been used for baking pizza for a very long time – and here is all you need to know to master the traditional oven as your go-to pizza baking tool.

The traditional oven, used for thousands of years. Traditional or brick ovens consist of a heated baking chamber with a fire-proof stone/brick/clay base to cook the pizza on. Unlike other ovens, traditional ovens work by absorbing the heat in the base/walls of the chamber and cooking food on contact.

Generally these ovens cook at extremely hot temperatures to produce a crispy base, which means you need a cheese which melts slowly to prevent burning and allow the base to fully cook.
