5 Reasons Wood-Fired Pizza is Better

5 Reasons Wood-Fired Pizza is Better

For countless generations, fire has been used for cooking. However, with electric and gas ovens being the common option nowadays, it's easy to forget all the amazing benefits of cooking with fire.

1. Wood smoke flavor

Traditional ovens just can’t beat the taste that wood smoke creates on a pizza. It infuses the crust, the toppings, even the cheese with a delicious taste that you can’t get anywhere else.

2. It’s faster

A traditional wood-fired pizza can be done in 2 minutes or less. In the oven, it takes 10-15 minutes! That means you could have 5 wood-fired pizzas in the time it takes to make 1 conventional oven pizza. And you don’t even have to share them if you don’t want to.

3. Wood-fired pizza is healthier

Don’t call me crazy yet! Because of its faster cooking time, any fruit or vegetable toppings are able to retain more nutrients and antioxidents. There’s a fun fact for your next pizza party.

4. It saves energy

No gas, no electricity, just good old fashioned fire. A wood-fired pizza oven helps you lower your energy consumption without having to sacrifice your delicious pies.

5. Wood-fired ovens are multi-purpose

You don’t have to make pizza all the time! (But it’s not a bad idea). A wood-fired oven can be used to cook a lot of different things. You could make hearth breads, roast meats, vegetables, and more! The best part? You’ll get that deliciously smoky flavor with anything you make.
