Forno Magnifico Electric Pizza Oven Review

by Leave a Comment

Forno Magnifico is like the American version of the G3 Ferrari G10006 Delizia Pizza Oven where most of the features and the way they cook their pizzas is similar.

If you are into something that is small portable and would take really little space then you have to read this review.

Forno Magnifico is a small pizza oven, but it does the job really well, you are going to end up with some great tasting pizzas that have a crisp base along with soft and gooey cheese on the top along with toppings that are cooked to perfection.

If you want an electric pizza oven for your home so that you can cook a nice pizza for your family from scratch or maybe just cook a frozen pizza before your favorite TV show starts you have to take a look at this oven as this might be the best fit for you.

What I liked about the Pizza Oven

1. The Pizza Oven is really easy to use, all you need to do is take it out of the box and plug it in. You can get started with using the Pizza oven the day you get it.

Overall, using the oven is really easy and you do not need 5 minutes to set it up like many other premium pizza ovens.

2. The Pizza Oven can reach really high temperatures inside cooking the pizzas perfectly. You can get a pizza cooked within 10-15 minutes depending on the thickness of the crust of the pizza being cooked.

This is a pretty good performance for a pizza oven as small as this one. There are similar ovens that take a lot more time to cook pizzas so relatively this one is way better.

 

3. The pizza oven is portable and really light in weight. You can easily place this oven on your countertop and if you have a small kitchen then you can even store it in your cabinets.

If you are someone like us who keeps moving from one city to another then you would love to have this kind of pizza oven with you.

4. Coming to the taste of the pizzas cooked inside the oven, the pizzas tasted really good. The base came out nice and crisp while the toppings were cooked perfectly and the cheese was melted right.

The pizzas cooked looked like the ones you would get from pizza outlets hence making this pizza oven a hit. If you are looking for an instant pizza oven

 

5.  The Pizza oven has a temperature dial above so you can set the temperature accordingly depending on the dishes you want to cook inside the oven.

As mentioned above the pizza oven can get really hot which is what you need in order to get the perfect crisp base. There can be a bit of a learning curve initially but once you get the hang of cooking in this pizza oven you would love the results.

6. You do not need to turn around the pizza like in most of the other pizza ovens. All you have to do is make your pizza and then put it inside the oven and close it and cook it on the right temperature and heat settings.

 

7. The pizza oven is perfect for traveling as well. If you are traveling to a new place or plan to live in a hostel, you can easily carry this along with you and use it at the new place.

You can take it on trips but be sure that there is electricity where you go as it needs to be plugged in so that you can cook your pizzas easily.

Cons of the pizza oven

1. You can just cook one pizza at a time inside this pizza oven. If you are looking for a pizza oven that can host pizza parties then you might want to go for the Uuni 3 or the Uuni Pro pizza oven that can cook a pizza within 30 seconds.

This pizza oven is designed for personal use, something that you can use to cook pizzas for your family.

 

2. The oven might not give you that wood flavor that you get in a wood-fired pizza oven. If you are a fan of that flavor then going for a wood-fired pizza oven would be the right thing to do.

Conclusion

Do we recommend this pizza oven? Yes, the Forno Magnifico is a pretty good pizza oven but in the given price range you can get much better pizza makers.

Pizza ovens like the Wisco 421, Oster Convection oven come within the same price range and I personally feel like they had more to offer to someone who is looking for a deal that gives them value for their money.

But one has to consider that this pizza oven is not a bad deal at all. The oven reaches really high temperatures that are ideal for cooking pizzas and cleaning up the oven after cooking is extremely easy as well.

Overall, the pizza oven is a really good investment and if you are looking for an amazing electric pizza oven for your home that can cook excellent pizzas for you then this one is going to be the best fit.

The pizza oven is even portable which makes it really easy to store and transport as well.

CucinaPro Pizza Maker Review

by Leave a Comment

If you are looking for a small pizza oven that can be kept on the countertop and can cook almost anything then you are looking in the right direction.

CucinaPro Pizza Maker is light, portable and really easy to use. You can keep it on your countertop and it would barely take any space and that is probably one of the best features of the pizza oven.

You can cook anything you want inside the oven which includes eggs, bacon, tacos, reheating food and pizzas.

The Pizza Maker has its own set of pros and cons so if you are looking to invest in the pizza oven the do read the review before making your purchase decision.

More about the CucinaPro Pizza Oven

The CucinaPro Pizza Maker is more like the gadget you would use if you barely had any access to a stove for cooking. Hence, I think it is perfect for someone who lives alone and has no time for some major cooking.

 

The Pizza Oven does take a bit of time to cook but it can cook almost anything. You need to be careful about the timing for each of the dishes that you want to cook inside the oven as the time can vary.

The Pizza Maker is portable hence making it really easy to move around the house. You can even keep it in your kitchen cabinet and pull it out whenever you want to and then store it inside again once you are done with the cooking.

Features of the CucinaPro Pizza Maker

1. Using this Pizza Maker is going to be really easy as it does not have any of those complicated features. All you need to do is pull it outside the box, plug it in and start cooking.

 

2. The Pizza Maker does take a bit of time when it comes to cooking pizzas and you might want to give it a good 25-30 minutes for cooking. The entire room smells like a pizzeria when you cook inside the oven.

 

3. You might want to consider cooking small to medium sized pizzas as the pizza oven is not large enough for family-sized pizzas. The inside diameter is around 10 inches so make sure your pizza is smaller than that.

==> Get the Best Deal on the CucinaPro Pizza Oven

4. The Pizza Maker does get hot and you might want to keep an eye on the oven in order to avoid any accidents. Something that is always a concern with the low budget pizza ovens.

However, the CucinaPro worked just fine for us and there was no problem with cooking inside it.

5. The non-sticky base of the pizza maker makes it really easy to cook inside the oven. You would barely find any dishes sticking to the base and the coating does not come off after multiple uses which is a really good thing.

 

6. The pizza cooked inside the oven is pretty good. The base was crisp and the toppings were cooked perfectly and evenly. We cooked homemade pizzas and they turned out just fine.

 

Cons of the Pizza Maker

1. A few people have had issues with the Pizza Maker within a week claiming that the quality of the oven is not that great.

However, for the price point I do not think one can expect much and if you are worried about this happening to you then make sure that you check the return policy before ordering it.

 

2. It does take a lot of time in comparison to the other premium pizza ovens. If you are used to cooking in the Uuni 3 then you might not like this pizza maker.

If you want a pizza oven better than this one then the Betty Crocker oven or the Pizzazz Oven are the ones you are looking for.

 

3. There is no Power ON button which can be a problem to a few people. However, I think I liked it anyway so if you are looking for this feature then you might want to reconsider.

Conclusion

The CucinaPro is a pretty good pizza maker that is lightweight, portable and really easy to use.

One cannot ignore the fact that it does have a few downsides and one of them includes that you can only cook small pizzas that are less than 10 inches in diameter.

It is easy to use and you do get value for money but there are already similar and better models in the market that you can go for and a few of them are Betty Crocker and the Pizzazz Rotating Pizza Oven.

==> Get the Best Deal on the CucinaPro Pizza Oven

These pizza makers have their own pros and cons but the end result form the CucinaPro was good as the pizza cooked was crisp at the bottom with the soft cheese on the top.

Uuni 3 vs Uuni 2s Portable Wood Fired Pizza Oven

by Leave a Comment

Uuni 2s was a hit among people as they could get a really nice affordable wood-fired pizza oven which is portable. Honestly, the Uuni pizza ovens have been a game changer to anyone who wants to have an outdoor countertop pizza oven.

Not only do they ace in performance and the taste of the pizza, they even cook really fast and are extremely easy to use in a way that everyone wants to get one of these for their homes.

Coming to choosing between the two pizza ovens, this might be a difficult task and that is the reason we have this comparison post so that we can differentiate the features between both the ovens.

==> Get the best deal on the Ooni 3 Pizza Oven

It is obvious that the Uuni 3 is better designed and has a slightly better performance but if you are looking for some major differences or if the Uuni 3 is worth the upgrade then do give this post a good read.

Design of the Pizza Ovens

The pizza ovens are slightly different when it comes to the design. The Uuni 3 has a three-legged design for a better stability of the pizza oven while the Uuni 2s has four.

The burner on the Uuni 2s is pretty larger and has a slightly different design than the Uuni 3. Overall, the Uuni 3 does prove to have a slightly better and much more efficient design.

The Uuni 3 is longer in comparison to the Uuni 2s. The chimney in the Uuni 3 is detachable making the entire pizza oven relatively more easy to carry around when compared to the Uuni 2S Pizza Oven.

Uuni 3 Wood Fired Pizza Oven

==> Get the best deal on the Ooni 3 Pizza Oven

The inside of the Uuni 3 oven has an additional plate between the flame and the pizza cooking space that avoids the pizza to come in direct contact with the flame causing it to burn.

This was not there in the Uuni 2s and is an added advantage as it helps the pizza cook better. The door of both the pizza ovens has a similar design with a wooden handle that makes closing and opening the oven really easy even at high temperatures.

Fuel used by the Pizza Ovens

The Uuni 2S could just be used with wood pellets which is a nice way to get everything started but the wood pellets do burn out fast and you need to keep putting more inside the hopper.

You even need to make sure that the fire inside the pizza oven does not go off as that can make your entire pizza go black with all the soot inside the pizza oven.

With the Uuni 3, you can use the wood pellets or it can even be used with a gas burner that comes along with the pizza oven.

The gas burner works like a charm if you are someone who does not want to worry about the wood pellets and keep an eye on the flame in order to keep refilling the wood pellets.

This way you just need to attach the gas burner and cook your pizza without any hassles. The pizza cooked in the oven is amazing with the gas burner as well giving you more reasons to use the Uuni 3.

Performance

The Uuni 3 has proven to be a much easier oven to cook pizzas even though there is a learning curve with both the ovens.

It was relatively very easy to cook pizzas in the Uuni 3 as the pizzas were less prone to getting burnt with the design of the pizza oven.

Sadly, the Uuni 2S was poorly designed and even though you could make pizzas in them you had to go through a couple of trails before you finally get to the art of making perfect pizzas with them.

==> Get the best deal on the Ooni 3 Pizza Oven

Both the ovens could make a pizza within 60 seconds which is pretty good and you need to rotate the pizza with a pizza peel after every 30 seconds so that it is cooked evenly from all the sides.

The pizzas cooked in the oven taste very similar to the pizza cooked in a commercial wood fired pizza oven so for the price tag of $300 you are getting some pretty good stuff.

Portability

As mentioned earlier, the Uuni 3 has a detachable chimney which makes it really easy for someone who is traveling. It is really light in weight so you can easily put it in a bag and take it with you on trips.

The Uuni 2s has a non-detachable chimney making it a tad bit more cumbersome to carry it around everywhere. In the case, you are looking for a pizza oven that is portable and amazing you should definitely go for the Uuni 3.

Both the pizza oven are really light in weight and you can easily set it up on a countertop outdoors and get started with making pizzas within a few minutes.

Conclusion

It is clear from the thorough review that the Uuni 3 was built because it had a better design and a better work mechanism than any of the other portable wood-fired pizza ovens.

However, if you have some extra cash to spend you can definitely check out the Uuni Pro which is the ultimate Pizza oven.  Considering the price point and everything we would say that Uuni 3 seems like the better investment.

==> Get the best deal on the Ooni 3 Pizza Oven

The Uuni 3 is multi-fueled as well and you can use a gas burner with it as well, however, you do need to get the gas burner separately but it is totally worth the money.

The Uuni 2S is sadly not a great match and I would not recommend going for it as the amped version which is the Uuni3 does way better than its predecessor.

Update: Looks like the Uuni 2S is discontinued as we could not find the product in stock at the official Uuni 2S page.

Roccbox vs Uuni (Ooni) 3- Which is a better investment?

by Leave a Comment

The Roccbox and Uuni 3 are one of the best pizza ovens and if you are making a choice as which one is better between the two then you have to read this comparison post.

Comparing the two pizza ovens is pretty interesting and both the ovens have their own pros and cons, however, it is going to get really interesting when we have to pick one and decide which one is better.

If you are unaware about the new Uuni release then do check out the Uuni Pro which is an amped up version of the Uuni 3 and we have compared both the Uuni Pro and Roccbox as well on this blog.

==> Get the best deal on the Ooni 3 Pizza Oven

Coming back to the two pizza ovens being compared, i.e. the Uuni 3 and the Roccbox Pizza oven, we would compare each of their features and reach a final conclusion on which one is better.

If you want to skip reading on every feature in detail then check out the final Conclusion section to know which one is a better investment.

Design of the Pizza Ovens

The Roccbox Pizza Oven is gorgeous and it has a really sturdy built. It is a countertop pizza oven so you can easily place it on a countertop and it takes really less space in comparison to any other wood-fired pizza ovens.

Uuni Pro or Roccbox

The oven has a burner unit at the back where you can burn wood or coal according to your wish to fuel the pizza oven. The unit can also be replaced with a gas burner, making the pizza oven fueled by a propane tank within no time.

The best part about the pizza oven is that you can use multiple sources to fuel the pizza oven. The size of the pizza oven is larger than the Uuni making it more suitable to cook steaks and other dishes inside the oven.

The cooking area in the Roccbox oven is large enough to cook a pizza of about 12 inches. So, you cannot cook a really large 16-inch pizza but you can definitely cook multiple pizzas one after the other as it barely takes 70 seconds to cook one.

The Uuni 3, on the other hand, has a nice silver metallic finish and is really light in weight and portable. It is way lighter than the roccbox and you can easily out it in its dedicated bag and carry it around with you to trips.

The Uuni 3 is fueled with wood pellets which are cheap to buy and efficient in raising the temperature inside the oven really quickly. The pellets produce a lot less smoke as well making them eco-friendly.

Getting started with the Pizza Oven

Getting started with the Uuni 3 is going to take some time as you have to assemble all the parts of the pizza oven that comes inside the box.

You do get all the things you need for the assembly in the box itself and it would take around 20 minutes to ensemble the entire pizza oven.

==> Get the best deal on the Ooni 3 Pizza Oven

The Roccbox Pizza Oven relatively requires less effort to get started with and honestly if you choose for it to be gas fueled then it would take less than a few minutes to get started.

Both the pizza ovens are fine when it comes to setting them up and getting started with them, however, the Roccbox might be slightly easier than the Uuni 3.

Portability and Performance

Moving on to the main aspects of the two pizza ovens, one among them is the performance. The Uuni 3 cooked the pizza really well and within 60 seconds.

You do need to turn around the pizza while it is cooking in order to get it perfectly cooked from all the sides and avoid any uneven cooking.

Uuni 3 Wood Fired Pizza Oven

The Uuni 3 can easily reach 700°F at the base of the pizza oven and around 900°F inside the oven due to the insulated design that avoids any heat escape from the pizza oven.

The pizza in the Roccbox can take a little longer or around the same time to cook. The base of the oven can reach anywhere around 900°F giving you really crisp pizza base along with well-cooked toppings.

Performance wise both the pizza ovens worked great and for the price tag, Uuni 3 worked amazingly well but we have to give it upto Roccbox as cooking in it is much easier especially when it is gas fueled.

Roccbox

Fuels that can be used with the Pizza Oven

The Roccbox pizza oven has a burner unit so it can be fueled with wood and coal easily. You can even replace it with a propane tank and get the entire setup to be gas fueled which is another advantage.

Something that is a little annoying about the wood-fired pizza oven is that you need to always monitor the fire and make sure that is lighted all the time that the pizza is being cooked.

This is the case with Uuni as well since the wood pellets burn out pretty fast and you need to keep an eye on the burning wood so that you do not end up with a pizza that has black soot all over it.

Roccbox is slightly better that way as all you need to do is plug in the propane tank to make it gas fueled and leave the pizza to cook inside without having to keep an eye on the fuel all the time.

The open design of the Roccbox makes it easier to keep an eye on the pizza while the closed setup of the Uuni 3 might make it difficult to know if the light is still lighted in the burner at the back.

Update: Uuni recently released the gas burner so now it comes with a gas burner as well, making it equally good in comparison to the Roccbox Pizza Oven.

Portability

Both the pizza ovens are portable, however, the Uuni 3 undoubtedly aces the portability factor as it is extremely light in weight and you can carry it around with you on trips as well.

The chimney on the Uuni 3 is detachable as well making it even easier to carry it around with you during your camping trips.

The Roccbox might need to be taken to trips in a car as it is relatively larger and even though it is not heavier the size of the pizza oven is way bigger in comparison to the Uuni 3 Pizza Oven.

Uuni 3 wins this as it is probably one of the best portable wood-fired pizza ovens.

Conclusion

If you are a pizza lover, then you would love both the pizza ovens and both of them are really good when it comes to choosing one, it is going to be a tough choice.

Considering the price point and everything we would say that Uuni 3 seems like the better investment. It does have a few downsides but they are quite manageable if you want to save a couple of hundred bucks and still have the best pizza oven for yourself.

The Roccbox would cost you double of what the Uuni 3 is and if you want perfection then you can go for the Uuni Pro rather than investing that money in Roccbox.

==> Get the best deal on the Ooni 3 Pizza Oven

The Uuni 3 is multi-fueled as well and you can use a gas burner with it as well, however, you do need to get the gas burner separately but it is totally worth the money.

The features of Roccbox are amazing but if you look at the price feature balance then we have to give it to the Uuni 3 as it has a lot of features for a very reasonable price.

==> Check out the Roccbox Pizza Oven

There are way too many expensive wood-fired pizza ovens out there but Uuni gives you the best of the features at a good price.

In the case, you have any experience with the two pizza ovens then leave them in the comments below as it would definitely help our readers!

Which one would you prefer? The Uuni 3 or Roccbox?

Best Gluten Free Pizza Dough recipe- This is just Perfect!

by Leave a Comment

Recently, I was researching about Gluten Free Pizza recipes and I came across a ton of them but most of them looked different from the normal flour dough and I wanted the best Gluten Free Pizza Dough recipe that would be as good as a normal pizza.

After a lot of research and trying, I did try out a recipe(will link the video below) and I’m happy to report that it worked out really well.

There are many gluten-free pizza dough recipes out there but they are just not perfect and definitely, do not feel or taste like normal dough pizza.

Best Homemade Pizza Dough Recipe

The gluten in the normal pizza dough helps in giving it that fluff when it combines with yeast. So you end up with a pizza that has a chewy and a fluffy and soft base, which is due to the air retention capacity of the normal dough.

While making a gluten-free pizza dough, we need to mimic the same air retention property of the normal dough and hence we would be adding ingredients that would help you get the exact same texture that you would get with a normal all purpose flour.

If you really love pizza and want it to taste perfectly the same as the normal dough pizza then this recipe is something that you should try.

This recipe is going to take you some time to make and but it is definitely worth it. This is a bit longer than the usual pizza dough making process but it is not going to take you forever, so be patient and try out this recipe.

Ingredients

1. Gluten-free Flour (you can use any flour that is gluten-free) 250 grams

2. Psyllium Husk- 2tbsp

3. Baking Powder- 1 tbsp

4. Almond Flour- 100 grams

Recipe

1. First, you need to add all the dry ingredients and since most of the ingredients in the recipe are dry apart from water, you are just going to mix everything in a bowl.

2. Next, you are going to add some water and get the mixture to a batter-like consistency and once you are fone with that, you would take a tray and spread the batter in the shape of a pizza dough and toss it in the oven for 45 minutes.

3. We kept the heat LOW in the oven so that the water could dry off. However, after a lot of experimentation, we found that keeping it for 30 minutes does the trick as well. Basically, this recipe does involve a lot of trial and error but the end result was totally worth it. water.

4. The result would be a dough that would look like your normal pizza dough and the idea is not to cook the dough completely but to just dry off the excess put some toppings on the pizza and cheese.

5. Now, cook the pizza like you would cook any normal pizza.
The result is going to be amazing as the crust would be crispy because of the almond flour and the baking powder and the psyllium husk is going to help in water retention making the dough moist enough to cook perfectly like the normal dough.

Well, I got this recipe from the video below and if you want the science behind every ingredient then do go ahead and watch the video.

Basically, they do not mention the quantities of each item that they have used, so we had our own trial and error method done to get the perfect recipe.

Do try the recipe and let us know how it turned out in your case.

Overall, we think the taste is very similar to the normal dough and if you are fed up of being Gluten intolerant and not able to enjoy anything then this recipe is dedicated to you.

If some other measurement of the ingredients worked for you then do let me know in the comments below!
