Class Description

Description

What you'll learn in this bread making class:

Learn to make classic French breads from scratch!

In this workshop trained chef and baking instructor, Kristin “Baker Bettie” Hoffman, will walk you through the process of baking classic French-style breads from scratch. We will be baking classic baguettes, rustic herbed fougasse and the ultimate enriched bread: brioche. 

We will be working with some more advanced yeast bread techniques and pre-ferments so some knowledge of bread baking is helpful, but not absolutely necessary.

In this Workshop, we'll cover:

  • What is a pre-ferment
  • How to make and use a poolish
  • How to shape baguettes & fougasse
  • Stone baking method for baguettes
  • Working with heavily enriched doughs
  • Dark chocolate studded brioche

Who is this class for?

This class is for 18+ and all experience levels are welcome, though some knowledge of working with yeast and bread baking is helpful.

Your ticket includes:

  • A 4-hour hands-on bread workshop with all materials provided.

  • Cheese, charcuterie, bread, and other accompaniments to snack on throughout the class

  • Coffee, tea, and water service
  • All of your bread and recipes to take home along with some yeast to get you started.
