Baking bread in your own oven
Ratgeber Holzbackofen, Brot backen
For many people, it is important to take time for shared meals. They appreciate the ingredients and enjoy preparing their meals themselves. Good quality food and making something yourself are always important. Cooking together slows down everyday life, brings variety, and sharpens the sense for each other. If we want to find something positive in the Corona crisis, it might be that it offers us the opportunity to cook together and spend time with our closest family. Homemade bread also stays fresh significantly longer due to the natural ingredients. And on top of that, homemade bread saves a trip to the baker.
We rent wood-fired ovens for this purpose, which can be ordered, paid for, and picked up contactlessly from us. Maybe some people would like to try it!
Baking Bread
Baking bread is just one of the current trends. It is best achieved in a wood-fired oven. The ovens are characterized by being directly fired with wood. This means the bread is in the oven and takes on the unique wood oven flavor. Perfect for a hearty snack. But what makes a good wood-fired oven?
Above all, the shape and insulation of a wood-fired oven are important. In a wood-fired oven with a dome shape, the air circulates uniquely and ensures good burning of the wood. The insulation then ensures that the heat created in the oven is retained inside. This is how you recognize the quality of a good oven. How long it can maintain the temperature without being constantly fired with a large flame is what makes a good wood-fired oven. It's essentially its inner value. This also includes the material of the floor inside the wood-fired oven; in ovens from Valoriani and Fontana, it is made from food-safe refractory clay. Whether the oven is fired directly or indirectly doesn't matter much, the temperature has to be right.
The Perfect Dough
The wood-fired oven itself is already half the battle for successful bread. But of course, the dough also plays a crucial role. The great advantage is that homemade bread dough contains only a few ingredients and can especially be customized as a bread dough for allergy sufferers. A kneading machine is advantageous, though. It can also be done by hand, which increases the ideological value of the bread, but we would recommend a Bernardi dough kneading machine.Your Partner for Wood-Fired Ovens and Bread Ovens
