Pizza makes me think anything is possible!

In the commercial kitchen spaces at SCK we have a new tenant, a pizza caterer. These guys are using the kitchen to do all their preparation work and then they take a box trailer with a wood-fired pizza oven out to the customers house.
So, it got me thinking about what is the best type of equipment you can use to make pizza's. Our supplier, International Catering Equipment has the pizza market covered.
Mecnosud Spiral Mixers
With pizza, the skill is in making of the dough
A spiral mixer provides a consistent performance that is required to make great pizza dough each time.
As spiral mixing is gentler on the product, compared to a planetary mixer, the temperature of your dough changes less which helps ensure that the yeast activates properly. Spiral mixers deliver pizza doughs that are lighter and have more air in the product, which ultimately delivers a better finished product.
Mecnosud Dough Rollers
Once you have a light and airy dough it makes sense to not over work that dough when forming the pizza base. The best way to do this is to use a dough roller.
For pizza, using a dough roller with a top feed angled to the unit allows you to make perfect round bases every time. Mecnosud have a 30cm and a 40cm dough roller that is perfect for this.
Anvil-Aire Pizza Prep Fridges
Now it is time to add the ingredients. Keeping your pizza toppings at the correct temperature is a requirement in Australia and a pizza prep fridge is perfect for this job.
Pizza preparation fridges are one of the most important purchases for a pizza shop, as, when they are working correctly, they allow the ingredients to remain food safe.
