English term

pizza 2 pans

English Other Cooking / Culinary
I am translating a catalog for household appliances. One model of ovens comes with a list or pre-set recipes that are listed in the catalog under various headings (the detailed recipes are not given). Under "pizza" the two recipes available are "pizza" and "pizza 2 pans". Does anybody know what "2 pans" could possibly refer to?

Thank you

Non-PRO (1): writeaway

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

Unfortunately I don't have the actual recipes which would have made everything a whole lot easier to understand.
Tony M Jan 18, 2009:
Perhaps it would help if you told us what the differences between the recipes are? It might indeed be as simple as cooking twice the quantity in order to make 2 pizzas at the same time, though I do have my doubts... Surely the recipes should make it clear?

two pan pizza

Googling shows a few hits for "two pan pizza":

"Presently, one pan pizza cost $7 but I can make my own two pan pizza less than $5."

"I do it all by hand so maybe I need a total handling time for a two pan pizza recipe for my Lou/Uno like crust."

http://www.pizzamaking.com/forum/index.php?topic=2403.55;wap...

Haven't found a recipe for it, so can't explain further. I would write it "2-pan pizza" or two-pan pizza."

I'm assuming that since it comes under the recipe section of the manual, it refers to a type of pizza rather than how to place two pizzas in the oven at the same time.

Doesn't reading the recipe yield some insight? Does the recipe use 2 pans??

Oh, sorry. It's a catalog, not a manual, and I see that the recipes are not given. My mistake.

pan pizza or bread pizza

Could be a mistranslation with typo. Or - there is something called bread pizza, pizza di pane in Italian. But I'm guessing.

2 different sizes

Pizzas usually come in 2 different pan sizes

One is a flat (Thin) pan pizza and the other is a deep pan pizza.

You need the two different pan sizes for each type.
