video // Flatbread Night

We had the opportunity to join Sonoma’s Mike [the bejkr] Zakowski at his home last month for some delicious flat breads. Under a veil of December condensation, a group of lucky friends huddled around his outdoor brick oven while he and girlfriend Christy assembled small, steaming miracles adorned with pumpkin sauce, fresh cheeses, dandelion greens and other brilliant toppings.

While adults noshed and kids ran around in the dark, wet yard with feral delight, we checked out Mike’s brand new floor to ceiling custom-made iron oven. (it resembles some sort of like a medieval torture chamber, but we’re going to give him the benefit of the doubt that it’s for baking.)

Peter put together a little video of the evening and we hope you enjoy!

Please try Mike’s bread for yourself if you get an opportunity—you can find him at most Sonoma Valley Farmer’s Markets. We look forward to a lot more from Mike as he prepares to represent the U.S. in the World Cup of baking in Paris this year.
