Wood fired bread & outdoor pizza oven

Many people would agree that cooking in a wood-fired oven evokes the romance of tradition. They might be surprised to learn that it can also be remarkably efficient. A wood-fired pizza oven can reach higher temperatures than a conventional domestic oven and has a more even temperature distribution, making it easy to cook a delicious pizza in just two or three minutes.
If pizza is not on your menu, you can also cook all manner of bread, meat, fish, vegetables, casseroles, cakes and puddings in clay ovens by taking advantage of the different stages of the heat cycle.
