Description

Bread & Cheese - the perfect pairing! Learn how to make the most famous Italian breads and how to pair them with Italian farmstead cheese Cheese meets bread (and a dash of olive oil) in this exploration of true artisan bread baking, combines with a cheese tasting*. Although Ciabatta & Focaccia may appear as simple breads they can take a lifetime to master. In this class, we will delve into several methods for making these two tasty breads. You will get your hands in the dough to bake your own bread which can be tasted right out of the wood fired oven with a guided cheese pairing. In the hands-on part we will focus on all aspects of the bread making process: mixing, fermentation, folding, shaping, proofing and baking. We will be discussing different strategies for achieving professional quality results in a home kitchen. The class will end with a cheese tasting and discussion to link the results with the process. Join us for a fun and informative class in the beautiful countryside setting of northern Vermont and return home with a new understanding (and appreciation!) of timeless classic breads & cheeses. Vegan cheese options available!
