Playing with Fire...

We had a great time on Saturday with returning student Slafka and her husband Dave, on a special course combining both Wood Fired Pizza and The Magic of Wood Fired Cookery.  We had two ovens on the go: on Big Mama indoors (best in January weather) we baked sea bass, mushrooms stuffed with St Agur cheese and garlic, potatoes tartiflette (think cream, herbs and wine),  onion flowers with bbq sauce, and pears stuffed with hazelnut frangipane for dessert. Outside the kitchen door, we allowed our students to light Huff, manage all the fire and bake pizza in, under Dragan's watchful eye. It hailed at all the wrong moments, but the gleam in our students' eyes told us all we needed to know: they've got the fire bug fair and square.
