  • I love the ingenuity in his spoken English, when he said "we on the fire" I literally fell from the chair. Full disclaimer, being Italian myself I might find his broken English funny rather than annoying.

    Regarding the oven, the thin terracotta vase might not withstand multiple cycles of heating/cooling and potentially crack.

  • His is another case where someone learning english as an additional language ends up with much better pronunciation than I could attain as a native speaker.
    Where I live terra cotta isn't that common so the oven would end up being more expensive over time anyway, but it would be fun to try!

  • Made a tandour oven in a similar way with a terracotta pot and it was fine, tho I did coat the inside of the pot with sugar water and few heat cycles.
