Do come along for some free cob oven training from Peter Dicken.

Sarah Clarke will be one of the trainees - she's going to be creating pizzas for the Guild of Cornmillers shortly.

Peter will be producing some bread using the cob oven and dough risen using beer barm yeast.

A BBC producer will also be there as she wishes to include the oven in some future TV prog presented by Nigel Slater.  The filming will be later in the month.

Ovens out on the road again!

The portable oven's been on the rampage again, this time back at Crosby Ravensworth for their seasonal food market.

I have felt over the past season that the oven could perform better than it has been doing and to try and improve its performance I thought I would try and increase its insulation efficiency - sand takes far too long to dry out before being useful and is very heavy to carry from venue to venue. I resolved to try something else - Perlite.
