Pizza ovens are a great way to waste a Saturday with friends and neighbours. I make the pizza dough and prepare toppings complete with fresh herbs from the garden and everybody makes their own gourmet pizza to be cooked in the oven. The oven is gently fired up for two hours then the coals are scrapped out and base washed with a damp towel. Then the pizza's are ready to be cooked on the base of the oven
I made our pizza oven out of easily found materials, the only purchased item was pizza bricks. So it makes for a very cost effective way of cooking, not to mention fun!
The image is of our patio with the pizza oven I built (When I was 7 months pregnant, OK I was nesting!!) I run workshops on how to build these around Hawkes Bay.
