A quality peel is perfect for sliding bread or pizza in and out of a hot oven quickly allowing the oven to stay at the right temperature - rather than fiddling around with the door open letting the heat out.
This peel has a very thin, aluminium blade for long-life, and a short, wooden handle. The blade is 9" (23cm) square for smaller ovens or pizza; the overall length including the handle is 22.5" (56cm), just the right size for keeping in a kitchen.
With a dusting of flour or semolina before sliding dough into the oven, this is an invaluable tool for the breadmaker.
