Stark Insider TV in Napa: Wood burning ovens, pizza at Oenotri

Sadly, that time has not yet arrived, but you can’t blame one for trying.

Clint rolls his eyes when I bring up the idea. “Maybe when we buy a vineyard in another lifetime…” is something along the lines of the droll response.

But, good news. On my downtown Napa adventure I was fortunate enough to stumble upon Oenotri, conveniently located right across from Robert Huether’s gallery. Everyone in town knows about it, so it seemed like I had some catching up to do. In this latest episode I meet up with Chef Curtis Di Fede, and we dive right into the foodie talk.

I also discover something about the pig (Curtis has a whole one brought in weekly). I’m told the best part to ask for is the cheek. Tip: to order it, ask for the  Guanciale. Viva la cheek!

In this video you’ll see the kind of wood burning oven where dreams are born. Curtis also explains why he likes to have his cheese flown in from Italy.

I’d give away everything and tell you what Oenotri means, but I need to leave a little to the imagination (hint: the answer’s in the video… you know I’d say that didn’t you?). Bon appetite!

They can be a lot less expensive to run than models which run on other fuel sources. Many folks live where wood is plentiful and cheap. In these areas outside wood furnaces make a large amount of sense.  When buying an outdoor wood furnace it pays to go searching. Not all models are of the same quality and include the same features.

Test reports for the brand of outdoor wood furnace will give you a more accurate picture of BTU than the spec sheet supplied by the manufacturer. The energy potency of the unit is explicitly related to the kind of wood that you burn. Well seasoned hard woods will furnish you more heat for a longer period of time than soft woods.
