Wood Fired Oven Cookbook

I bought this for my brother who is a pizza fanatic and has a wood-fired pizza oven. I thought he might like to widen his repertoire, hence the book. He has just emailed to say that he has tried lots of the recipes now and that they were highly successful and delicious. My brother's wife is a very good cook, so if this book gets praise from them, it will be a good buy.

Very glad to own another book by Holly Jones. The book is full of excellent photography and great recipes. we are looking forward to trying some the recipes out in our wood fired oven now that the evenings are lighter and the weather gets warmer. I love the idea of baking a cake; the sour dough looks delicious and some of the pizza toppings look amazing.

I love everything about this book and gave reccemended it to many people. I love how it’s layedb out starting with the history of wood fired ovens and then practicle advice on how build a fire and a lot of good pictures also. It has menu ideas abs runs you through step by step the timings and everything you need to do. It has recipes for everything from pizza to meats and puddings. It helps you maximise the temaprature of the fire and use it for longer, even over night slow cooking things like meringues while the fire is cooling down. I would highly reccomend this book. I go back to it often.

Very informative on how to set up and build your fire and optimise the temperature. Recipes generally OK. Bit random on the pizzas. Personally, they could use more meat and bread recipes but once I have got the knack of cooking with the oven I'll try some of their recipes.

Was a Christmas gift for my brother to use with his outside wood-fired pizza oven. Great for food ideas on what can be cooked in this kind of oven, not just pizza!
