WOODFIRED Oven Pizza Classes$675 total price for a maximum of 2 people -
3 -Hour Class (approx) Woodfired ovens have become very popular now. When I built mine, it was an exploration of how to use it and how to cook in it. I burned a lot of pizza. It was a lot of practice and learning to get things right. Then, to host a fun pizza party without me being stressed and it being a lot of work (or having the oven go cold or get too hot!). Now that years have passed and I have years of practice in the oven, I want to teach my knowledge to you. No more guessing, and a lot less burnt pizza! I wish there was a class like this back then, I could have used it. Less stress and food issues and more eating and more fun with my guests. The beauty of having this class in your oven, is it offers you the chance to learn your oven's habits and unlock your potential oven skills. Here is the outline for the woodfired oven class: Here's a list of pizzas to choose from: HERE We'll Learn:

HOME Oven Ciabatta Classes$675 total price for a maximum of up to 4 people -
4-Hour Class (approx) **Class takes place in the comfort of your own home** One of the most popular and admired Italian breads. The word ciabatta literally translates to the word "slipper", which the bread gets from its flat, long shape. Beloved by most, it has a very open crumb structure and complimentary crust. Perfect for sandwiches and a strong supporter of fresh olive oil. Ciabatta is made with a very wet, high-hydrated dough. It can be tricky and sometimes frustrating to work with, unless you. know the tricks. In our ciabatta class, we teach the basics of ciabatta preparation and provide 2 other options of what can be made with the same dough. You'll learn to formulate, shape, and bake ciabatta. We will design the class and flavors for your tastes and skill level, making sure that you have fun, and learn all that you want.

WOODFIRED COOKING Classes$675 total price for a maximum of up to 2+ people -
3-4 Hour Class (approx) **Class takes place at your wood fired oven at your house** We get a lot of future, customers (people about to build an oven) asking us this question: "do woodfired ovens cook more than just pizza?" The answer is absolutely. In fact, woodfired cooking lessons with Frankie G, are focused on teaching you cooking "method" over "recipes," and most importantly, learning in your own oven. This is a personal, and very hands-on class. Each class is original and will be designed to prepare only in what you are interested. Having a woodfired oven is the perfect reason for an al' fresco meal, and if you are the owner of an oven, you should be taking advantage of it. The ambiance of the oven is very romantic with guests, and it's even more enjoyable when the entire meal comes from the oven's hearth. Below are a three examples of a 100% woodfired oven al' fresco meal: Here an outline example of a woodfired cooking class: We'll Learn:
