5.0 ? 2020 Documentary

We've got a special episode for you this Thanksgiving. Over the past year, I've dedicated myself to constructing an earth oven in my backyard, drawing inspiration from the renowned Kiko Denzer. From renting an excavator to building the foundation, installing insulation, constructing the oven floor, and adding insulation layers – this project has been a labor of love. In this hour-long journey, sponsored by the fantastic King Arthur Baking Company, I take the newly crafted oven on its maiden voyage. Join me as I attempt to create a classic Neapolitan wood-fired pizza, inspired by the techniques of Jeffrey Hamelman.
