Get your wood fired oven fired up! Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan, add the garlic and cook for 1 min. Add the mushrooms and thyme, then cook for 3 mins until they start to soften. Throw in the spinach and stir until the heat of the pan wilts the leaves. Remove from the heat and stir in the soft cheese, 1 tbsp of the Parmesan and some seasoning.
Put a quarter of the spinach mix on the bottom of a medium-sized baking dish, lay 2 pasta sheets on top, then repeat until you have used all the pasta. Finish with the final quarter of the spinach mix, sprinkle over the rest of the Parmesan, then bake for 35 mins until golden and the pasta is tender.

Taking inspiration from May’s fruit produce guide, treat yourself to this wood fired Rhubarb and delightfully crispy pud!
You’ll need:
For The Filling:
1 lb rhubarb (about 3-4 large stalks) washed and chopped into 1-2 inch chunks
6 ounces raspberries
6 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon cornstarch
For The Topping:
8 tablespoons all purpose flour
3 tablespoons cold unsalted butter plus extra for greasing the skillet
¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
51/2 tablespoons rolled oats
3 tablespoons brown sugar
3 whole sprigs fresh rosemary
Fire up your oven! Butter a 9-inch skillet or pie pan and set aside. In a large bowl combine the chopped rhubarb, raspberries, sugar and cornstarch. Toss gently making sure the fruit is well coated in the mixture. Let this sit whilst you make the scrummy topping!
In another smaller bowl, combine the flour, butter, cinnamon, oats and brown sugar. Rub the mixture with your fingers until it becomes like sand. Set aside.Give the fruit mixture another toss. The juices should have started to come out of the fruit by now.
Place the fruit mixture into the prepared pan and spread out until even. Add the rosemary to the topping mixture and toss. Sprinkle the topping over the fruit.
Bake in your wood fired oven for about 35-40 minutes. The crisp should start to bubble around the edges and be a nice golden brown on top. Let it cool for five minutes and then serve with hot vanilla custard or ice cream 🙂

“The Mezzo is fantastic and the more I use it the better I get. Starting to now control the heat a little better and I’m able to regulate the temperature accordingly.”
“We had a pizza night on Friday with a few friends over and it was fantastic, you can cook them just as you like them.”
“Been using your recipe guide from the web site which is also excellent. All in all, the family are very pleased with my little purchase and I would recommend the Mezzo.”

After working at Stone Bake for nearly a year I have without doubt, completely and utterly fallen in love with all of our awesome products! Let’s face it, it would be really hard not to when surrounded by the creative and dedicated people who have made the company what it is today – not to mention the authentic wood fired pizza on tap!
Without a garden of my own, having a wood fired oven has been but a distant dream. My parents however do have a garden and have always wanted a feature for friends and family to gather around, which up until now has been their chiminea. My Mum has also always had the desire of extending the patio in the back garden – much to my Dad’s protest! I can just hear him now, “no, not another project Dawn”!
With Christmas fast approaching, the annual struggle to find a gift for my parents was upon me. What better gift to give than the friend and family entertainment centre they’ve always wanted? On Christmas day 2014, I was lucky enough to be able to gift the most important people in my life, the dream – a Primo 60 wood fired oven! They were so surprised and all the organising and hiding of the oven in my Auntie and Uncle’s garage (big thanks to them) had been worth it, just to see the look on their faces! Now my Mum finally had a decent excuse for that patio extension – you’re welcome Mum, (sorry Dad)!
With the hope of having their first firing up over the Easter holidays my Dad spent a lot of his retirement days doing that all important patio extending, arranging for the wooden stand to be built by my Uncle and finally the grand placement of the Primo 60!
Papa Jenkins was officially open for business and we had our first pizza party a couple of weeks ago with the whole family – it was brilliant.
Primo vid
Everyone loved getting involved, making the pizzas, throwing the dough about and chucking the toppings onto all the weird and wonderful shapes we’d created. The family couldn’t get over how quickly they cooked and how amazing authentic wood fired pizza tastes. There is nothing quite like the crispy base (courtesy of Tom’s secret dough recipe) and the not so secret Stone Bake tomato sauce! Anyone with a wood fired oven can vouch for just how ridiculously delicious wood fired food is.
We look forward to the many more social gatherings the oven brings and the endless recipes to try out, which can all be found right here! Our Stone Bake ovens were already somewhat of a passion of mine to talk about but now I have tried and tested one out for myself I can’t rave about them enough!

Wearing long gloves, rinse nettles well. Drain.
Sizzle garlic a few seconds in 1 tbsp. oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Add nettles and sauté until wilted, 2 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat. If nettles are wet, drain in a colander, pat dry, and return to pan. Gently mix nettles with 1 tbsp. more oil, the pepper, and chilli flakes.
Scatter cheese, then nettles, over dough. Place in the centre of your wood fired oven! It will only take 1 minute for your pizza to cook so make sure you carefully rotate it to ensure an even cook or until the crust is lightly browned and ever so slightly charred in places (your preference but we like it a little bit like this) and the cheese is bubbling.
Remove from oven and drizzle with remaining 1 tbsp. oil and cut into squares. Season with salt if you fancy and get stuck right in!
