Purpose of this blog

This blog will really be a true web log. I will post here about different wood-fired ovens as I find them.

If you know of any wood-fired ovens I should know about, you can send an e-mail to me. (If you build wood-fired ovens, I would like to hear from you too.)

There will lots of posts and lots of labels, since I plan to create one post for every appropriate web site that I find, and however many labels it takes to describe each one (usually at least the type of page and the location of the oven).

The accumulated information will still be found at the real Quest for Ovens web site links pages, but that is not updated as frequently as this blog will be.

If you are from outside the US and Canada, let me know what you find interesting about it. I see that I get visitors from India and Iran, and other faraway places. I'd like to know what draws you to this blog.

I received e-mail from the organizers of the BBC Two television show asking if the Saint Paul Bread Club could post a notice about their show Great British Bake-Off for amateur bakers. The information they gave me is now accessible through a link. (The organizers don't have a web page for the show itself yet.)

Please share this with any amateur bakers in Great Britain you may know, or post the link where they might see it.

Thanks.

Alder Wood Bistro, Sequim, Washington Field Report

I had the opportunity to actually visit and try the Alder Wood Bistro in Sequim, WA.


They are actually located on Alder Street in Sequim. That puts it a few blocks north of the main street through town, so you probably would not find it by accident if you were just driving through Sequim.


Their restaurant opened about 5 years ago. Based on my limited experience, you would be well advised to make reservations.


I believe I read that the oven was built by one of Alan Scott's apprentices.


The inside of the oven is 4 feet by 6 feet. It seems to be a typical Scott barrel vault design.


We got their roasted vegetable pizza.


Their menu contains a lot more than wood-fired oven pizza.

In this case, I can recommend a visit.

    I am working on opening a community bakery in a deprived area. Do you know where I can find plans for a brick commercial size oven?

    Once a local mall in my area offered a cookware grand midnight sale, in my excitement I showed up an hour before the sale opened expecting to be among the firsts to get the best offers. Instead, I couldn't get into the right cookware to buy until almost an hour after the sale had started, and by then the items had been pretty cleanly picked-over. Had I planned ahead what to buy, I could have brought something home, but I'm sure others were able to find good deals. dutch ovens for camping
