Produktbeschreibung

Tandoors, communal bakehouses, Cob ovens, Hay boxes, Hangi underground ovens from the Pacific, and of course, Barbeques. Josh Sutton has researched the ways humankind has enjoyed cooking in the great outdoors. By focusing on outdoor ovens, meaning those constructed or used outside of the home, as opposed to the average temperamental contraption found in most modern kitchens, we can learn about the people and communities that built and operated them. We know that people naturally gravitate towards a fire, and with a few recipes as well as instructions on how to build ovens, readers will warm to this book. If you can't stand the heat, go al fresco!

Inhaltsangabe

Introduction: Fire! It's what sets us apart from all the other animals.
Man's ability to build fire and use it to cook has shaped the very way in
which we live.
Chapter One: Underground - Hangi, Imu, Luau - are all terms given to the
underground ovens of the Pacific Rim. Building a fire and making a
subterranean oven can often be the focus of a religious or cultural
ceremony or rite. It can also be a means for poachers and brigands of
remaining undetected in the hills around the Mediterranean.
Chapter Two: Overground - From earth to clay to brick. This chapter looks
at the development of the oven in all its guises (tandoors, pizza ovens
etc) and the rise and fall of the public bakery.
Chapter Three: Wandering free - Portable ovens, from the ceramic Hibachi to
the cast iron Dutch oven.
Chapter Four: Enough to feed an army - Innovation in the military
kitchen. From the 'Soyer Stove' of the Crimean war to modern military
catering, this chapter looks at the development of military ovens used for
victualling whole armies.
Chapter Five: Sweet suburbia - The rise of barbecue culture
Chapter Six: No Smoke Without Fire - A look at hot and cold smokers and
their uses.
