Step 1
Fire up your Ciao Bella Pizza Oven. Aim for 350°F on the stones. You can check the temperature inside your oven quickly and easily using the built-in temperature thermometer gauge.

Step 2
First, bring a large pot of salted water to boil, add the pasta and cook it for 4-5 minutes only. Drain and set aside. Add a drizzle of olive oil to stop the pasta from sticking to one another once drained.

Fry the chopped garlic with the onions until fragrant. Stir continuously.

Preparing King Oyster Mushrooms

• To prepare king oyster mushrooms, only cut the hard, very firm or dirty ends. For cleaning, if your king oyster mushrooms are good in quality, only wash the ends. However if a whole cleaning is needed emotionally, quickly rinsing it in running water. Don’t soak the mushrooms!
  

Preparing Blue Oyster Mushrooms

• Wipe off the dirt with a damp paper towel or damp cloth if you find a lot of heavy residue on your mushrooms. Do not go too heavy with the water or the pressure, as you do not want to damage your mushrooms. 

How to Blanch Fagiolini (Green Beans)

• Snap off the stem ends by hand, or use kitchen scissors to snip off the stem ends.
• Grab a pot large enough to hold the green beans you plan to cook, and fill it with water. Salt the water and bring it to a rapid boil. Add the green beans and boil until bright green and tender crisp, about 3 to 5 minutes.
• Remove from the boiling water and immediately plunge them into the ice bath to stop the cooking. Once completely cool, drain completely and pat dry.
