Benefits of Wood-Fired Pizza Ovens for Italian Catering
Experts don't know when pizza first came into existence. Some have argued that the topped flatbreads of the ancient Greeks could count as pizza. Others say that this Italian food could've only come into existence after tomatoes found their way to Europe.
It's a hard case to argue as what counts as "pizza" is different for different people. Some are happy with the microwaveable fare. Others must have pizza baked in a mobile wood-fired pizza oven.
When it comes to your next pizza catering event, should you go with the former pizza style or the latter? This article will argue that the former is the best choice. Read on!
Mobile Pizza Ovens Come to You
You're going to have to take care of a lot as you plan and prepare for your event. Wouldn't it be nice to take something off your to-do list? If you order our mobile wood-fired pizza oven service, you can cross getting pizza delivery from a pizza shop off your list.
When you order our service, you don't need to bother picking up a pizza order. You also don't need to bother with setting the pizza onto plates for your guests. We'll take care of all that for you.
All that your guests will need to do is order.
Wood Fires Cook Fast
What's the best thing about pizza besides its deliciousness? It's convenient! You can order pizza at thousands of places around the U.S. and have it at your house in 30 to 45 minutes.
You can have microwave pizza even faster! It cooks in only a few minutes. It may or may not be as tasty as a restaurant pizza, but many people don't care.
Cooking in Two to Three Minutes
How does wood-fired pizza compare to this? The fire in a wood oven burns hot! Most chefs keep the temperature hovering around one-thousand degrees.
At that temperature, the pizzas cook in a few minutes. Our wood-fired ovens can cook pizza in as little as two to three minutes.
Wood-Fire Pizza Is Tasty
And no, the fast cooking speed doesn't negatively affect the pizza. The unique features of a wood-fired pizza oven enhance the flavor.
Distinct Smokey Taste
Wood-fired pizza has a distinctive smokey taste. This comes from the smoke that the wood fire inside the oven creates. The smoke goes right into the crust and toppings as they bake.
Excellent Texture
The short cooking time helps the pizza toppings stay fresh. Also, the wood fire creates a crust that's crispy on the bottom, pillowy on the top, and chewy in the middle.
Wood-Fire Pizza Is Nutritious
Peppers, spinach, onions, and mushrooms are pizza toppings that contain an incredible amount of nutrients. This is why people who are more health-conscious love to eat pizzas with more vegetables on them than meat.
Cooking Can Degrade Nutrients
The problem is that too much cooking can cause these vitamins and minerals to degrade. So your body won't get as much from a pizza that is too thoroughly cooked.
Wood Ovens Cook Fast
This won't happen to vegetable pizzas that chefs cook inside wood-fired ovens. As mentioned, these pizzas finish cooking in a few minutes. So the nutritional properties in the vegetables of wood-fired pizzas will stay preserved for your benefit.
Mobile Ovens Keep Pizza Warm
Are you thinking of getting delivery pizza catering for your special event? If so, then you may have to settle for pizza that's in a less-than-ideal condition.
Pizza delivery people can deliver your pizza to your home fast. So the pizza should still be warm. Any other issues such as grease leaking into the pizza box should be minimal.
Wood-Fired Pizza is Fresh
But pizza straight from the oven is the most ideal condition. It will be warm and the toppings won't have degraded at all. The recipient may have to wait for the pizza to cool a bit, but that's all.
This is what you get when we bring our mobile oven service to your next event. We'll set up our Italian catering services right at your event. Your guests will get fresh-from-the-oven pizza as they enjoy your event.
Mobile Ovens Work Like a Show
There's one big thing that guests miss when chefs cook pizza in a backroom kitchen. They don't get to see the process of making the pizzas. While guests shouldn't expect excessive amounts of showmanship, watching pizza-making can still be lots of fun.
See Care and Quality
Plus, guests can get solid proof that the chefs are making their pizza with care and quality. They can see all the effort that the chef puts into hand-crafting their meal. They'll enjoy the pizza even more when they know that nothing is amiss.
Have Direct Conversations
Then there's the direct conversation. Guests can speak to the chef that prepares their food. They can make specific requests during the process.
This level of communication isn't possible when the kitchen is separate from the guests. A cashier will have to relay all the guests' orders to the chef.
The Smell of Pizza
There's no need to spray some air freshener around your event before it starts. The smell of a wood fire and the cooking pizza is sure to invade every corner of your event. Your guests should love this smell even if it does make them a little bit hungry.
