Classes run by arrangement and for a maximum of two students. All ingredients and baking equipment are provided. Our baking is done in a domestic oven so you can easily transfer your skills to your own home.
You will learn about kneading, resting, shaping and proving and will take all the breads you make (and haven't eaten!) home with you.
Each class begins with a cuppa at 10.00am and runs until 4.00pm or as soon after as the baking allows. We will stop for lunch and the kettle is always on!
Basic Breads: You will learn to make two basic bread doughs and will bake a variety of breads using these two doughs. We will, as time permits, bake one or two non-yeasted recipes too. On the menu will be white bread, wholemeal bread, bread rolls, and pizza.
Three French Breads: Make a trio of French breads; fougasse.épi and baguette, with one or maybe two 'interlopers' depending on how the yeast is rising.
Christmas Breads: Impress your Christmas guests with your very own Christmas Tree Tear and Share, Starry Rolls and Panetone or Stollen. we'll also make some Cranberry cookies, just the thing to leave out with Santa's glass of milk.
