    I got myself a Karu and now just need a thermometer gun,any recommendations?

    Pretty impossible to find an inexpensive infrared thermometer (about €40) at the moment. I contacted one manufacturer direct a few weeks ago and they told me they were out of stock and to try Amazon! :rolleyes:

    All the sites are buying them to check people’s forehead temp before entering - that and everyone making pizzas! I’ve ordered one and just have to wait the 6 weeks to get it.

    Got some of that and some mutti pizza sauce. Both fantastic!!

    the moz cuts up into nice little squares for sprinkling, its firm and dryer than normal moz and melts beautifully.

    You can get scamorza smoked mozzarella it’s relish, very solid but melts perfectly. Tesco finest

    It's handy for pizza as it is very firm and doesn't need to be dried out in any way.

    It's obviously more processed and plasticky than normal mozzarella, though.

    Thanks. Is it similar to the ‘fior di latte’ i see on every recipe and can’t get anywhere?!

    The hard Tesco mozzarella doesn't taste of anything. Creamfields stuff is nice. And cheap.

    Fior di latte is fresh mozzarella made from cows milk. Definitely not the same thing. I’d assume the Tesco one is similar to low-moisture mozzarella but I’ve never tried it.

    Folks, we love our pizza oven but I am finding it a pain that I need to prep dough long in advance of a pizza making session with the koda. Has anyone got any tips for a spur of the moment pizza session?

    Maybe frozen dough, I see pallas does the dough balls or shop bought bases that can be stored?

    How quickly is a spur of the moment job? I make dough that can be used in a couple of hours, or a couple of days. I leave it in a warm spot if I need it quickly, which is usually the case.

    Even frozen dough will need to be thawed for a few hours and then get up to room temp so you are looking at 4-5 hours.
    Best bet would be ooni same day dough recipe - ready in 3-4 hours

    I read a recommendation for the Aldi Sourdough ready made bases on a FB page. I haven't used them myself though but I will give them a try when I eventually get my Koda.

    They won't delivery to the Republic of Ireland or Parcel Motel. The click and collect isn't available either.

    Has anyone found reasonably priced dough trays for proving that will fit in a standard domestic fridge? I currently use individual round food containers but getting the dough out can be a bit tricky.

    If you're short of time, I recommend these to use in the Koda. Really crispy crust. :)

    You can reduce this by defrosting in an airtight ziplock bag in cool water. Changing the water regularly.
