Time to Bake Bread

I had also gone to a work shop on how to bake with sourdough (unleavened bread). The presenter for this work shop is the wife of the cob oven workshop, and they bake bread in their cob oven all the time. So when they were in John Day about 10 years ago they built a cob oven at a local area home and some of us were invited up to see how the bread baking happens in the cob ovens.

This pic is the door of the cob oven and a loaf of fresh baked whole wheat sourdough bread.


I am using the peel to get the loaves out of the oven.



See how big the inside of this oven is.....wow, we had 5 loaves of bread and a pan of roasted garlic in there all at the same time.


So dinner consisted of fresh from the oven bread, garlic dip and homemade mozzarella cheese, some red wine and beer if you preferred.


This is Hannah the maker of the bread as she slices the still warm loaves. YUMMMMMMY!!!
