Pizza Peel Ooni UU-P0B900 40 cm Bamboo paddle for transferring pizzas

Ooni UU-P0B900 40 cm bamboo pizza peel is a wooden paddle designed for transferring pizzas to and from home and outdoor ovens. The 40 cm wide bamboo blade offers a smooth, low-friction surface that helps slide dough into the oven and retrieve baked pizzas without tearing or sticking. Lightweight and durable, the bamboo construction balances strength and manoeuvrability, making it suitable for both raw dough handling and moving hot pizzas during cooking.

Advantages

The bamboo blade provides a firm yet responsive surface that resists warping and absorbs less moisture than many other woods, improving longevity. Its 40 cm width accommodates medium-sized pizzas while remaining easy to handle for precise placement. The paddle’s lightweight design reduces wrist strain and enables safer, controlled movements when inserting or removing pizzas. The smooth finish helps prevent dough from sticking and simplifies cleaning and maintenance.

Suitable for

• Transferring raw pizza dough into wood-fired, gas or electric ovens
• Removing finished pizzas from hot ovens with controlled handling
• Home kitchens and outdoor pizza oven setups
• Amateur and hobbyist pizza makers seeking a reliable wooden peel

Key specifications

• Blade material: Bamboo (smooth-finished wooden surface)
• Blade width: 40 cm
• Construction: Single-piece bamboo paddle designed for lightness and strength
• Surface finish: Smooth, low-friction for easy sliding of dough and pizzas
• Intended use: Inserting and removing pizzas from ovens; suitable for raw and cooked pizzas

How to use

Dust the paddle surface with a light coating of flour or semolina before placing dough on it to aid sliding. Use the peel to assemble the pizza on the paddle, then give it a slight shake to confirm the dough moves freely. Slide the pizza into the oven by rotating the wrist and pushing the paddle forward, then quickly withdraw the peel. To retrieve a baked pizza, slide the blade under the crust and lift with steady pressure, supporting the base as needed. Allow the peel to cool if exposed to high heat before handling further.

Usage recommendations

Do not soak the bamboo paddle in water or put it in a dishwasher; clean with a damp cloth and mild soap, then dry thoroughly. Periodically treat the wood with a food-safe oil to maintain the surface and reduce moisture absorption. Avoid prolonged direct contact with open flames; use the peel for positioning and brief removal rather than sustained exposure to extreme heat.
