Recently, I have less time for cooking in the kitchen, because I have to try my new toy – Wood Fired pizza oven. As you all know when you followed my page, I really really fanatic in Italian cuisine, however, one of the most authentic food of Italian cuisine is PIZZA. Therefore, I wanna to have a pizza oven since I’m in Hong Kong, but there’s an unattainable dream in my life if I’m in Hong Kong, I’m already lucky enough that still have a little living area to live with.
After moved to Malaysia, although my house is not a big one, it’s only a small size of attached house, but still have one tiny back garden; for local family, they will extend this area as wet kitchen for cooking purpose; however, I’m just rent this house, so I planned to use it as outdoor kitchen, and finally my dream comes true now.
Thus, I wanna briefly talk about basic knowledge of wood fired pizza oven to let you know about it. I understand that, most of the readers here who are in Hong Kong cannot have this oven, because it’s only can be used outdoor.
First, traditional wood fired pizza oven built by bricks in dome shape, this dome shape can let the fire extend from wood fired side to another easily and also can maintain heat longer. Wood fired oven can be reached maximum temperature to 500 degree celsius. The best ideal pizza should be cooked in 300-350 degree celsius for about 60 seconds to 1 minute only.
Wood fired oven using wood chunks as fire media, but wood kind depends on personal and place preferences. In most of western countries, they would like to use oak wood, but me, in Malaysia, using rubber tree wood, and some can find red wood as well. However, pizza oven also using gas as fire media nowadays, although it’s still can cook the same result as wood fired one, but there’s no wood fragrance smell and may be have some gas smell too. In Hong Kong, all those using pizza oven to cook pizza, they can only use gas one because there’s no more wood fired licence nowadays.
Wood fired pizza oven, not only for cooking pizza, it also a traditional oven and bbq oven as well. So, I use it for cooking other food as shown some pictures below :
作者一路上也很想嘗試意大利的雅枝竹，在香港只有C記高級超市有新鮮的買，但價錢貴得不捨得買，因此一直也沒有機會試食這個在意大利很普遍的食材。
Actually, I really wish to taste artichoke very long time as it’s very common in Italy, unfortunately, it’s hard to find and very expensive in Hong Kong, so I don’t have chance to try it.
有次在馬拉見到，可是作者人生做不熟，見過後又記不起那裏是什麼地方，所以一直耿耿於懷。幸好最近在一間批發公司見到有罐頭雅枝竹，雖然價錢可算是頗貴，但也能負擔的價錢，就買來一試吧。 不過作者一吃卻愛上了。
Fortunately I have found once in Malaysia, but I can’t remember what’s the place I’m visited as I’m really too new in here. Luckily, I found canned one in whole sale store, although it’s can say expensive here, but still affordable price, so I decided to buy one and try it. After I tried, really fall in love artichoke then.
今次所用的海鮮種類其實不限，讀者用什麼海鮮也可以，只是作者用剩餘的海鮮來做，各位讀者自由發揮吧。

2. 雅枝竹及車厘茄分別切開成四件，蒜頭、辣椒及鯷魚切碎，備用 (如果用新鮮雅枝竹，先用滾水煮過10分鐘)
Cut the artichoke and cherry tomato into 4 pcs, and chopped garlic, chilli and anchovies, set aside (If you are using raw one, please boil it for 10 minutes before use)
3. 由於海鮮有不同的生熟度，所以要耐心地每樣每次先煎或煮過海鮮，然後盛起，備用。例如 ： 帶子或蝦先用牛油煎香、蜆肉或青口用白酒煮過等等
Since there’re various seafood here, so please cook each seafood individually beforehand and set aside (i.e. grill scallops and shrimp using butter, cook clams and mussels using white wine)
4. 煮好不同的海鮮後，同一個鍋，先下橄欖油，爆香蒜頭、辣椒及鯷魚
After cooked all seafood, using the same pan, put some olive oil, cook some garlic, chilli and anchovies until fragrance
5. 再下車厘茄煮一會後，加入雅枝竹，炒多一會
Add cherry tomato and cook for a while, then add artichoke and keep on stir a little
6. 把之前的海鮮回鍋，快伴勻後，加入意粉及蕃茜伴勻，最後加上檸檬汁就完成。
