Breadmaking Mastery 1.0

Description:

Discover the timeless art of bread making in this immersive, hands-on workshop designed for both beginners and seasoned bakers. Over the course of the session, you’ll master three bakery favourites: the Classic Tin Loaf, Ciabatta, and soft Burger Buns.

With expert guidance, you’ll learn professional techniques for mixing, kneading, folding, shaping, and baking, while gaining a deeper understanding of how hydration, fermentation, and gluten development affect your bread’s structure, flavour, and texture.

This workshop goes beyond basic recipes-it’s about experiencing the rhythm of baking from start to finish. You’ll handle different dough types, compare enriched and lean doughs, and learn how to achieve bakery-quality results with simple ingredients and proper timing. As your breads bake, enjoy a guided tasting and discussion on flavour, texture, and serving ideas that will inspire your next baking session.
