1. It is so hot and humid here that the yeast bread raises FAST! Really fast! |
2. Some of the best looking bread is baked with the fire in the back of the oven. |
3. Bread (and pizza of course) baked with fire in the back, has a special smoked taste. |
4. Pizza is awesome no matter what. Using regular oil vs. olive oil really doesn't matter to a tico (or a gringa). |
5. If you ask a Costa Rican if they would like to try a calzone, they will laugh! |
6. 400 degrees isn't hot enough to brown bread, but just a few secret minutes in an electric oven does the trick. |
7. Baking bread on cookie sheets is A LOT easier than sweeping the coils and mopping the hearth. |
8. Baking sweet breads (on cookie sheets of course) in a brick oven are amazing! |
