Forno a legna

Italian

The traditional wood-fired brick or masonry oven required by AVPN's protected Neapolitan-pizza standard, and used across many historic Italian and Italian-diaspora pizza traditions — distinguished, in professional and regulatory use, from other legitimate but different oven-fuel types (gas, electric) that can reach comparable temperatures but do not meet the specific protected-standard requirement.
