The present invention concerns a method and an apparatus for producing a disk of pizza dough ready for filling and baking using the centrifugal force. Th e system expanding the pizza dough under the influence of the centrifugal force is known for a long time. The pizzaiolo (piza baker) apply it twirling the disk of dough (overhead) in the room for expanding its diameter. Other known mechanical systems for this purpose provide very complicated devices equipped with radially oscillating levers which should guide the dough in its radial expansion. The present invention on the other hand is characterized in that the expansion of the diameter of the disk of dough under the influence of the centrifugal force is effected using an apparatus of very simple design consistin g essentially of two plates (2 3) arranged coaxial one supported by the other. The method proposed presupposes that the dough be prepared first as a preliminary disk (1) of dough the diameter of which ranges between a third to on e half of the desired final diameter of the dough disk and that this preliminary disk (1) be subject to the influence of the centrifugal force in a room determined on both sides by two rolaling plane surfaces. The great simplicity of the apparatus realising the present invention permits it s large scale application in every small pizzeria.
