Welcome to part 1 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. They specialize in teaching wood fired oven cooking techniques to folks from all around the world.
In Part 1 of this Masterclass series, I talk to David about his intriguing background and what drove him to start the Manna from Devon cooking school with Holly in Devon in the UK. We chat about his Wood Fired Ovens and types of wood he uses in these ancient types of ovens.
This episode sets the scene for the rest of the series where we discuss over 20 …yes….over 20….different types of food that you can try in your wood fired oven. That’s a big list of gloriously delicious food and cooking techniques that are coming during this series.
Sit back, relax and join me as we start this incredible 5 part Wood Fired Oven Masterclass series with David Jones.

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.
