Pizza is best baked in a wood fire oven. At home, our HVAC, washer/dryer and water heater are heat pumps. Next up, dumping the gas stove and oven and switching over to an induction stove top and speed oven. Bye-bye gas.
We’ve had an induction cooktop for about a year now and love it. That old adage that a watched pot never boils went right in the trash alongside the old stove. Put a pot of cold water on and turn it all the way up and you’ve got boiling water in about a minute or two.
Also you need to be really good at pizza making to produce a good pizza from a wood fired oven. If you’re ever in Italy, you might start noticing that there are way more wood fired ovens than there are good pizzaioli to man them.
It’s not like adding more pollution to the air is gonna make things any better. This is an easy w in a world of intractable, difficult problems. We are barely into the bell curve of where the climate could go, and people are already bitching about the tiny hurricanes, tornadoes, winter storms, droughts, insurance increases, food costs, and wildfires. If you think it’s bad now, just wait and see what it’s like in 30-60 years if we don’t change our behavior, haha.
The article is about New York City’s pizza, not New York City Pizza. If your “local Italian restaurant” is in NYC, they will need to switch to electric too.
