Description
This stainless steel pizza paddle pairs a broad, flat blade with a warm rubberwood handle, made for sliding pizzas on and off the heat. The blade is almost square with softly rounded corners, roughly 25cm across and 23cm long, which gives plenty of room for a homemade pizza, a flatbread or a round of garlic bread. A short angled neck in brushed steel lifts the handle from the blade and is riveted firmly in place, so your hand sits above the cooking surface rather than on it. Overall it measures 42cm long and 25cm wide, and it weighs 0.542KG, a comfortable weight to hold.
We think it earns its place wherever pizza gets made. It can be used with barbecues, pizza ovens and conventional domestic ovens, so it is just as useful in the kitchen as it is out in the garden on a summer evening. Slide the thin blade under a pizza to lift it from a stone or a hot tray, then carry it to the table and ease it onto a board for cutting. It is as handy for a weekday supper in the oven as for a weekend gathering around the barbecue or pizza oven, and the 14cm handle gives a firm, easy grip.
The blade is stainless steel and the handle is rubberwood, fixed to the neck with metal pins, and a hole at the top of the handle lets you hang it on a hook when it is not in use. It is hand wash only, not dishwasher safe and not for use in a microwave. As general good practice, wash it in warm soapy water, dry it straight away and keep the wooden handle out of long soaks. Hang it beside the oven or the barbecue so it is always within reach, or wrap it up as a practical gift with a bag of pizza flour.
