Cooking in an earth oven (Umu) in Samoa, Pacific Ocean - making an earth oven (or, a Samoan umu) in Apia, Samoa. Let's go to beautiful Samoa in the Pacific Ocean and let's visit the scenic capital, the city of Apia. In Apia we find the Cultural Centre located right by the waterfront and during our visit, we are going to witness the creation of an earth oven (Samoan umu) and at the very end we are going to enjoy a great meal! A Samoan umu refers to the traditional method of cooking food using heated rocks buried in a pit oven.
An earth oven, umu, ground oven or cooking pit is one of the simplest and most ancient cooking structures in Samoa. At its most basic, an earth oven or an umu is a pit in the ground used to trap heat and bake, smoke, or steam food. Earth ovens have been used in many places and cultures in the past including Samia, and the presence of such cooking pits is a key sign of human settlement often sought by archaeologists. Earth ovens remain a common tool for cooking large quantities of food where no equipment is available. They have been used in various civilizations around the world and are still commonly found in the Pacific region to date.
