After seven consecutive years teaching master classes at The French Pastry School, World Baking Champion Didier Rosada returns to teach Artisan and Traditional Breads. During this three-day hands-on class, you will produce a variety of artisan breads using baking processes specifically developed to optimize flavors. From the classic baguettes mixed with a conventional short mix process to the more complex pain de Lodeve, a selection of traditional bread from all over Europe will be made. Under Chef Rosada’s guidance, you will make a Couronne Bordelaise from the Bordeaux region, a Pain de beaucaire from the southeast of France, Pugliese and Tuscan bread from Italy, Heidebrot from Germany, Mountain Rye from Switzerland, Canadas de azucar from Spain, and more. In addition, breads such as Conchas, bolillos, or Pan de Muertos will add some “south of the border” flavor to your product-line. After a technical introduction, presenting the different types of pre-ferment and the flavor profiles associated with them, you will create this wide selection of artisan breads.
