Here’s a little film which has been in the works for a short while. A day in the baking life of our wood fired, masonry oven. Enjoy!

Note: I've fixed the audio and video so they match now. Sorry for any earlier confusion.

This week’s episode is here!  The new Zoom H4 gets its test drive in this slightly longer show. In addition, a new oven has arrived in Kitchen Studio. I managed to score a new but never installed oven off of Craig’s List for a fraction of the cost and it works brilliantly.  We use it to make Profiteroles filled with Quince.

This show began way back in October. I had some technical difficulties, which are now solved. So here then are a couple of fragments joined together to create something I hope you’ll enjoy. First I gather Rose Hips to make syrup and then I cook a Green Tomao Curry.

Recently, we fired up the Wood Oven to bake bread. In order to achieve the maximum bake we preheat the oven the night before and usually bake pizza while we do. Here then is a short film about that activity. A fuller feature is coming about baking bread in the oven. Kudos to Big Ed to getting me out there to film the process!
