Our Valoriani brick oven

Updated: Jan 4, 2023

At Balsamo's Pizzeria Food Truck, we use a Valoriani wood-fired pizza oven to cook our pizzas to perfection. This type of oven is widely considered to be one of the best for making wood-fired pizzas, due to its unique design and high-quality construction.


One of the key features of the Valoriani oven is its thick, heavy-duty walls, which are made from refractory clay and insulated with wool. This helps to retain heat and allows the oven to reach high temperatures, up to 1000 °F, which is necessary for cooking woodfired pizzas.



Another advantage of the Valoriani oven is its dome-shaped design, which allows heat to circulate evenly and helps to cook the pizzas evenly on all sides. This results in a perfectly cooked pizza with a crispy crust and evenly cooked toppings.


In addition to its technical features, the Valoriani oven is also highly regarded for its aesthetics. It is handcrafted in Italy and has a classic, timeless design that is sure to impress.


Overall, Balsamo's Pizzeria Food Truck is proud to use a Valoriani wood-fired pizza oven to create the best possible pizzas for our customers. "We believe that this oven, combined with our expert pizza makers and high-quality ingredients, allows us to offer the most authentic and delicious woodfired pizzas in northern Virginia."


Attention, pizza lovers! We're excited to announce that Balsamo's Pizzeria will be opening for business soon. Our team of expert pizza makers has been working hard to create the best wood-fired pizzas in northern Virginia, and we can't wait for you to try them.
