Hello everyone, I have a question related to cooking with a wood fired oven. I am currently living within the city of Santiago and I have just constructed a wood fired oven and I?m trying to get some information about what types of wood are suitable for cooking and clean burning because some such as pine, cedar and fur are not due to the fact they are filled with sap and other materials that would cause problems. Does anyone have any info related to wood for cooking in a wood oven?

Why in the world would you want to do this? The DR has avoided much of the fate of it's neighbor Haiti by doing everything they can (subsidized propane and heavy regulation of tree cutting, etc.) to avoid using their precious forest resources for cooking.
