In 3 steps the perfect evening with the whole family

Step 1: Plan ahead

The first step is to set a date for family pizza night. It may seem like a small detail, but in today's busy schedules, it can be quite a challenge to pick a time when everyone can attend. Grab the calendars and pick a date together. By intentionally scheduling this moment, you emphasize the importance of togetherness and quality time together. And besides: the anticipation of planning and looking forward to this evening is almost as much fun as the evening itself. 

Step 2: Good preparation is key

A family pizza night is the perfect way to bring everyone together and have fun together. To make sure this evening goes smoothly, here are some tips for the perfect preparation

• Get ingredients in house: make sure you have a wide selection of pizza toppings so that everyone can put together their favorite pizza. Think different types of cheese, fresh vegetables, cold cuts, and of course tomato sauce. Don't forget the pizza dough, which you can make yourself or buy ready-made.
• Slice away: prepare toppings by cutting vegetables ahead of time and placing meats on plates. This makes it easier for kids to top their pizza.
• Pizza tools: a good pizza scoop is indispensable for safely getting pizzas in and out of the oven. A pizza cutter is also not to be missed for dividing the delicious creations.
• Preparing wood: For the wood-fired pizza oven requires wood, of course. Buy or chop the pieces of wood you need yourself in advance for pizza night.
• Come up with some fun games for the waiting time: While you're waiting for delicious pizza, it's always fun to play a game with each other. For example, come up with some fun statements with "Point out the family member who would ... anyway."

Step 3: Pizza time

The time has come, pizza night can begin! Of course, it starts with lighting the pizza oven and setting the table. The advantage of the Utenovn is that it does not take long to get hot. The best way to light the fire is by the Swiss method. With this you ensure fast and clean combustion.

The perfect temperature for baking pizza is between 250 and 350 degrees. It is best to first leave the oven at that temperature for 20 to 30 minutes to allow the pizza stone to warm up properly. 

Once the pizzas are topped, it's time to put them in the oven. Of course, you can all top your own pizza, or share a pizza together. It is important to keep a close eye on the pizza while it is in the oven, because of the high temperature it does not take long for the pizza to finish! 

Good conversations, fun and enjoy delicious pizza! If this family evening is not a success, we don't know what is!
