What makes wood-fired pizza different
A wood-fired oven runs much hotter than a standard kitchen oven, so a pizza cooks in a few minutes. The high heat gives the crust a blistered, lightly charred edge and a soft, airy middle.
Neapolitan-style pizzerias often cook in a wood-fired oven, but other styles use one too. Expect some charring on the base and the edge: it is part of the style rather than a sign of a burnt pizza.
Frequently Asked Questions About Wood-Fired Pizza
It is a different style rather than simply better. A wood-fired oven gives a smoky, charred crust and a quick bake, while deck and conveyor ovens give a more even, crisper base. It comes down to what you like.
The dark spots, often called leopard spotting, come from the high heat of the oven. A little charring is normal for wood-fired pizza.
Many wood-fired pizza places offer takeaway, and some deliver. Check each listing for its service options and posted hours.
