Join Cat for a hands-on introduction to Dutch oven baking using fire as the heat source. In this practical and delicious session, we’ll make a vegan cake from scratch, exploring how to work with fire, heat, wood and cast iron to create surprisingly good baking outdoors.
Along the way, we’ll discuss:
How to choose and use a Dutch oven
What wood works best for cooking
How to build and manage a baking fire
Tips for successful fire cooking without fancy equipment
Participants will be invited to get involved in the process, from preparing the cake mixture to helping manage the fire and oven. And yes — there will be cake tasting at the end.
A grounded, practical workshop for anyone curious about sustainable cooking, outdoor baking, or making good food with simple tools and fire.
