Pizza Oven

On a cold morning (9F outside the back door), I'd love to be working near this warm, wood-fired pizza oven at Bonobo's Pizza on Pine Street. Delicious pizza, that's a bit pricey. Once in a while I find myself 'lost' in our kitchen, looking for something to do. That was the case Sunday afternoon. Take a look at what I got myself into. Ya, got to see this.

  1. Maybe the next time that you come over, you can show me how to make a loaf of bread. I like anadama (is that how you spell it??), myself.
    Just remember to bring your glasses (I'm tired of letting you borrow mine!). Oh, yeah, remember to bring the Powers, too!

    I did enjoy the bread story too.

  3. What a wonderful (and colorful) oven... Well, I am glad that you sent us over to get the real story on the bread.

    It does look tasty!

  4. Love the link and the story. You produced a wonderful loaf of bread as well as a certain amount of irritation for your assistant. Incidentally, we love our own restaurant that serves oven-baked pizza. Perhaps I should get a photo of that place and post it too?

  5. This is such a cozy, warm, inviting photo. . .and Elenka's take on the bread-making was hilarious! Made my day.

  7. Lost in the kitchen?! Thank goodness we got the real details from Elenka. And, thank goodness she rescued your dough from looking like an old man's bum! Your final product looked great, defintely worthy of a Heisman pose. Please keep us informed should you take on the task of whipping up a pizza (wood fired oven or otherwise).

  9. You can start a bread business now! :-) Pity it won't keep if you send it overseas.

    Love this shot, symmetrical and warm, the promise of a good meal. Hope the pizza dough is nice and thin!

  11. Love the pizza oven and the bread story - wouldn't be a very profitable business with all that work for 1 loaf!

  12. I have always wondered why the long stick and the short stick ! ... is the short one just to heat up something and the long one for real cooking from raw !

  13. I don't know why these women commenters are all so critical, Birdman. I consider your effort highly meritorious. But, I have no desire to emulate your bread-making.
