that it cannot come into contact with
either the upper heating elements or the
baking tray; ensure su cient distance.
Make sure that the spit pierces through –
the middle of the food. is is to ensure
that there is su cient distance between
the baking tray, the oven interior and the
heating elements. Use the holding clamps
to secure it in the centre of the spit.
Any protruding parts (e.g. wings of a –
chicken) should be held in with a tooth-
pick, a suitable piece of string or other
suitable means. is ensures that no part
of the food can stick out or come o
during the cooking process.

of the stone. e pizza should be slightly
smaller than the stone so that there is a
clear space all round it.

has melted and the bottom of the dough is
slightly brown. Use a spatula for removing
the pizza and serving it.
