I participated in a wonderful pizza making class with the amazing Frank Giovanni. His 30 years experience truly shined in his professional presentation from the science of making dough, to selecting the tasty topping combinations, setting the perfect oven temperature and detailed teaching on how to use all the tools.

I highly recommend any of his wonderful classes offered on fgpizza.com. They are held in the comfort of your own kitchen.

"Thank you for the class. It was very fun, informative, and helpful. We cooked all of the dough which was left over after you left. I couldn't stop eating. Everyone here enjoyed your class and we would recommend it to anyone who has a wood-fired oven. I look forward to taking a class on baking bread."

Woodfired ovens have become very popular now. When I built mine, it was an exploration of how to use it, cook in it, and burn less pizzas.  It was a lot of practice and self-learning to create the knowledge to host a fun pizza party without me being stressed and it being a lot of work (or having the oven go cold or get too hot!).

I wish there was a class like this back then.  I would have had less "black pizzas," and each pizza would have been round and would slide into the oven without any problems.

This class offers you the chance to learn your oven's habits and unlock your potential oven skills.
Here is the outline for the woodfired oven class:

We'll Learn:
  • timing your day
  • oven, wood, and flame management
  • dough making and recipe configuration
  • dough handling and shaping
  • sauces and topping preparation
  • pizza shaping, building and cooking
  • post-cooking pizza creating
  • serving and creative tips
Includes:
  • Frankie G's famous pizza dough
  • Margherita Pizzas
  • recipes
  • instructional notebook
  • hands-on guidance and fun
Woodfired pizza is delicious, but there are tricks for one can learn to make the experience even more fun and easy.  Oven tips to help with fire, flame, temperature and management.  Advice on food preparation, cooking, and most importantly, flavor.

In this class, Frankie G removes the guess-work and offers solid advice on how your oven operates, and how you can best operate it!

“I wanted a pizza oven in my backyard and had a pretty rough go until Frankie G’s class. The class was fun, we got to taste a lot of wonderful food, and I have full understanding of my oven after our time together”
