Our Avanti Mezzaluna Pizza Cutter is a kitchen tool designed for slicing pizzas. It is made of stainless steel to ensure durability and sharpness.
What is a Mezzaluna Pizza Cutter?
It is named after the Italian word “mezzaluna,” which means “half-moon,” due to its curved shape resembling a half-moon. The Avanti Mezzaluna has a length of 35cm.
This type of pizza cutter is popular among home cooks and professional chefs alike. It provides excellent control and allows for smooth and precise cuts.
While most commonly used as a pizza cutter, it can also be used as a herb chopper or a garlic mincer. The mezzaluna is a must have kitchen utensil for every home cook. Use it to mince, chop, slice, scrape and scoop all types of ingredients.
How to Use a Mezzaluna
The mezzaluna pizza cutter (sometimes referred to as a pizza rocker) consists of a single curved blade with two handles on either end.
To use it, you place the blade on top of the pizza and rock it back and forth, allowing the sharp edge to slice through the pizza effortlessly. The rocking motion makes it easier to slice through thick or crispy pizza crusts without exerting excessive pressure. Unlike a pizza roller cutter, the mezzaluna cuts with ease through pizza toppings so that they stay in place.
