My cousin back in Ireland has built a wood fired pizza oven in her back
yard, so on a recent trip when she invited me up for an evening of pizza and
beer with a few friends, she didn't have to ask twice!
Using the ancient method of hut building using straw and clay, she
constructed this amazing wood fired oven, or cob. It is highly
durable, easy and fun to make (it requires getting dirty, but who doesn’t like
to get a little dirty).
As the fire crackled and began to die down to the perfect glowing embers
needed to cook the pizza without burning, we prepared all our toppings
everything from our homemade tomato base sauce to olives, onions, peppers and
even black pudding. Everyone made their own specialty pizza and within
minutes (this over get seriously hot and can cook a pizza in 4 minutes) we were
enjoying perfectly cooked pizzas, the way they were meant to be baked!
