About the Cozze Turning Peel
This is Cozze's stainless-steel turning peel, an 18 cm round head on a 76 cm handle for spinning a pizza inside a hot oven so it bakes evenly. It is a natural partner to a Cozze oven, though it works in any hot oven.
In a 500C-plus oven the side facing the flame cooks in seconds, so turning the pizza a few times is how you avoid a scorched edge. A small round head lifts and rotates rather than carries.

Common questions
Do I need a turning peel with a Cozze oven?
In a hot oven, effectively yes. Cozze ovens reach 500C or more, where the flame side cooks in seconds, so turning the pizza two or three times gives an even bake. A small round turning peel like this does that far better than a wide launch peel.
How do you use a turning peel?
Slide the round head under one edge of the baking pizza, lift slightly, and rotate a quarter or half turn, repeating every 20 to 30 seconds. The long handle keeps your hand out of the heat; a light touch avoids dragging toppings.
