re:And what is the name of the similarly-shaped thing in a pizzeria?
a peel. and pizza ovens are technically peel ovens. from the latin pala, related to the latin word for a stake or stick..(leads into stockade, and pale..)
(some where in a RATA (or a yart, or what ever) in some food thread, i actually made a pun with peel.
Ny'ers call them ice choppers too, and since we don't chop wood, never thought to made that association.. but they do work like old fashioned choppers for nuts.. remember them? a cutter, in a jar with a wood block in the bottom, and you pushed down to chop nuts or parsley? not a food thread, not a food thread..think about chopping, a verb..
