GI Metal Azzurra Turning Peel

A standard peel is designed for launching and retrieving the pizza, while a turning peel is smaller and round, specifically made to rotate the pizza inside the oven while it cooks. This allows you to brown the crust evenly without removing the pizza from the heat.

Yes, the 20cm size is ideal for rotating standard-sized pizzas. Because you are only using the peel to pivot the pizza rather than lift the entire pie, this diameter provides the perfect balance of maneuverability and support for most home and professional pizzas.

While it is built to withstand the high heat of wood-fired and gas ovens, it works perfectly well in a standard home electric oven. The lightweight design makes it easy to handle in tighter spaces.

The peel is not dishwasher safe. To keep it in top condition, simply wipe the stainless steel head with a damp cloth after use and avoid using harsh abrasive scrubbers that could scratch the surface.

The anodized aluminum handle is designed to stay cool to the touch during normal operation. However, you should avoid leaving the peel inside the oven for extended periods, as the metal will eventually absorb the ambient heat.
