Masterclass Part 2 - Steaks, pizza, crispy chicken, porchetta and smoking foods with David Jones from the Manna From Devon Wood Fired Oven Cooking School.

Welcome to part 2 of this 5 part Wood Fired Oven Masterclass Series where I sit down in the United Kingdom and talk to David Jones from the Manna from Devon Cooking school. If you haven’t listened to the first episode in this series - I suggest you start with that one first.

Manna from Devon specialize in teaching wood fired oven cooking techniques to folks from all around the world.

In Part 2 of this Masterclass series, we pick up where we left off last episode and discuss cooking pizza, using Tuscan grills, Davids favourite cooking pans and how to roast the perfect chicken including the elusive crispy chicken skin. We also talk about the challenges of cooking tricker foods like Porchetta, baking the perfect bread rolls and David’s unique techniques for smoking foods in the Wood Fired Oven. Genius actually. …lots coming up in this episode.

Author and Educator

David and Holly Jones from the Manna from Devon Cooking school in the United Kingdom specialise in teaching wood fired oven cooking techniques to folks from all around the world.

They run fabulous cooking classes which inspire and educate while building skills and confidence. The small number of students attending their cooking courses (typically a maximum of 6-8 people) means they can create a relaxed environment and allow everyone maximum hands on time.

They also have a great range of online cooking courses and are authors of three wonderful wood fired oven cook books.
