About the HENDI Sauce Ladle 180mm
Saucing a pizza well means an even, thin layer, and a flat-bottomed ladle is the pizzeria tool for it. Spoon the sauce into the center, then spread it outward in a spiral with the back of the ladle for an even coat.
A regular spoon works, but the flat base and single-pizza size of a saucing ladle make the spiral quicker and more consistent, without drowning the dough or pushing sauce over the rim.

Common questions
How do you spread pizza sauce evenly?
Spoon the sauce into the center of the base, then spread it outward in a widening spiral using the back of a flat-bottomed ladle, stopping short of the rim. This gives a thin, even coat without drowning the dough. A ladle sized for one pizza makes the motion quick and repeatable.
How much sauce goes on a pizza?
For a 30 cm Neapolitan, about 70 to 90g of raw sauce, spread thin so the dough still cooks through. Too much sauce steams the base and stops it crisping. A single-pizza ladle roughly meters the amount so you do not overdo it.
