ABSTRACT:
Method and apparatus for producing a disk of pizza dough ready for filling and baking using centrifugal force. Expanding of pizza dough under the influence of the centrifugal force is known, and the pizzaiolo applies such force by twirling a disk of dough overhead in a the room for expanding its diameter. Other known mechanical systems for this purpose provide very complicated devices equipped with radially oscillating levers which guide the dough in its radial expansion. According to the present invention the expansion of the diameter of the disk of dough under the influence of the centrifugal force is effected using an apparatus of very simple design including two plates arranged coaxial, one supported by the other. According to the method, the dough is prepared first as a preliminary disk of dough, the diameter of which ranges between a third to one half of the desired final diameter of the dough disk, and this preliminary disk is subjected to the influence of the centrifugal force in a chamber formed on both sides by two rotating planar surfaces. The great simplicity of the apparatus realizing the present invention permits its large scale application in every small pizzeria.
