Furtado Farms Pizza Blend is a mix of wood half-logs for cooking in a pizza oven. The mix is made up of the woods with the highest BTU output and the longest burn time. This helps the oven reach cooking temperature faster and hold it longer while using less wood.
The cookwood is locally sourced, hand selected and processed. It is not kiln dried. Kiln drying uses a high-heat oven for many days, which removes nearly all of the wood's moisture and kills insects, but also draws out flavor and smell. Leaving the wood undried keeps its natural moisture content, smoke and flavor.
A thin crust pizza can cook next to a live fire in 60 to 90 seconds.
