Italian Breads
£170.00
- Italian bread conjures up thoughts of summer, whether it's to be eaten whilst on a picnic by the river or at home in the garden accompanying a chilled glass of wine, cured meats and some delicious olives.
This intermediate bread making course is perfect for those looking to add to their baking repertoire, whether you have been on our Beginner Bread Making course or have some alternative experience to date.
We aim to give a whistle stop tour of Italy, selecting a few of our most favourite breads and sharing them with you.
The emphasis of the day will be on getting to grips with wetter doughs that can be tricky to handle there will be plenty of opportunity for shaping a variety of doughs to help build confidence. Think delicious, pillowy ciabatta that's as light as a feather and the perfect Sicilian semolina bread which would adorn any lunch table, as well as focaccia and olive bread. We will be using a range of Italian style flours as well as introducing an Italian pre- ferment or 'biga'.
You’ll take home a bag of your freshly baked bread to share with family and friends as well as a wealth of knowledge to help you continue on your journey of discovery.
Joining Instructions
Coffee and freshly baked pastries will be served 30 minutes before the course begins. The course will start promptly at the advertised time. Lunch with a glass of wine will also be included.
We provide all equipment, including aprons here at the Hobbs House Bakery Cookery School, so all you need on the day is yourselves and a passion for bread making.
