Although they may see primitive , wood - sack pizza oven are really incredibly nuanced cookery instrument . Lighting seasoned Mrs. Henry Wood and positioning it in the rear and to one side of the igloo - shaped structures sets up a complex process . Warm atmosphere and smoke make their path from the back of the oven and up the chimney ( located near the front of the oven on most model ) . As the smoke and hot air departure , it creates a vacuum , which draws in fresh air through the oral cavity of the oven that stokes the ardor and creates more heat energy . At first intermittent and billowy , the exchange becomes a steady stream that lets off a low roar and creates a miniature tornado of blazing - hot line directly above the floor of the oven . As the oven itself warm , it begins to release a slow , unshakable oestrus , create two dissimilar cookery zones : a conductive cooking surface on the floor that extend to 650 to 750 degrees and a convective cooking geographical zone of 900 - degree strain pass around in the dome , above the pizza . This temperature difference is essential for a respectable Proto-Indo European . The tune above the pizza pie needs to be much hot than the oven floor to wangle the sauce , cheese , and any topping ( traditionally applied bare-assed ) . The lower - temperature floor cooks the crust thoroughly yet quickly enough that it does n’t dry out or become tough .
“ It is a magnificent , complicated dancing , ” says John Thess of Mugnaini Imports , a California pizza pie oven troupe . “ A well - built , well - installed oven let fire and rut to circulate but keeps hot smoke , which taste like creosote , away from the food . ” Pizza - making is just one of the mode to expend these ovens . Mugniani , whose oven components come from Tuscany , Italy , put up cooking classes to its customer , teach woodwind instrument - fire enthusiast how to modulate a pizza oven ’s temperature . “ Once you understand how to control the hotness , you could ready pizza pie as an appetizer , roast a branch of lamb for dinner party , and bake tirimisu ointment ottoman for afters , ” says Thess .
