Fire, Forge, & Fry with Erica Moody

Fire, Forge, Fry!

Is it an egg spoon, or a small wok to fire-fry whatever your heart desires? Come learn some metalworking and make your own long-handled steel spoon to cook over the firepit. We will hammer steel sheet metal into the shape of a wok/bowl, then bend and shape steel rod into a handle, and then drill and rivet it to the bowl. Then we will test it out by frying an egg in the magnificent wood-fired pizza oven, then pair it with a bialy and have a little festive feast together to wrap up the cozy afternoon! No experience in metalworking is necessary.
