Pizza - Frankie G style, from dough to table.

We get a lot of our friends and customers ask how I make my pizza in my woodfired oven. In this little video, Natalia and I demonstrate how to make dough balls, stretch pizza dough, top and cook pizza in a woodfired oven.

Although there are many techniques for stretching pizza, I like this one the best. I toss and spin it some times, but I am faster and better at this table-stretching technique so that is what I do.

There are also lots of different ways to top pizza... but remember this. Make it the way you like it! Throw the rules out the window. Just know that in a hot, woodfired oven, these tips help with making a better, fully-cooked pizza: room-temperature toppings and sauce, sparse toppings, thin dough.

FGpizza items included in this video are theClear Food Container - 2 Liter/2 Quart, the Pizza Cutter - Professional Quality, the Pizza Cutting Board & Serving Peel, the Stainless Steel Flour Shaker,and the Professional Wooden Peel -14x16x24.

Pizza alla' Romana

Wet dough makes a great pizza, and this pizza is as wet as it gets. Daniel Leader's book Local Bread presents this wonderful 85% hydration dough. The book may be found on our FG pizza's Bookshelf

We have adapted this for a wood-fired oven, and simply top it with San Marzano Tomatoes, olive oil, fresh garlic and oregano. The crust is crispy with lots of holes. Very delicate and very delicious.

Using our Romana Peel is the absolute perfect vehicle for this pizza. The detachable blade allows this six-foot-beast to ship affordably and you will love the American craftsmanship.
