Artisan Bread Making Course

Local business The Old Quarry Farm in Kingskerwell has introduced a new bread making course to teach people the art of traditional bread making. The art and science of traditional real bread-making should be (and used to be) at the heart of every home kitchen. It is satisfying, nutritious and of course extremely tasty.

They believe that our method, honed over many years by Bruce and Charles, can be taught to anyone who is willing to follow instructions and wants to eat good bread. So convinced are they that you can make good bread, they don’t think you need to have any more experience of cooking than turning a dial on a microwave!

Over a 2 day period on the course you will learn:-

• What defines real bread and how it’s been ruined over the years through chemical tinkering
• How to choose the best ingredients
• Mix dough the easy way without all that pummelling
• Where to leave your dough while the dough ferments
• Understand the science behind every step
• Prepare the tins properly
• Shape the dough
• Learn how to recognise well proved dough
• How to use an ordinary home oven to produce the same high quality loaves we’ve been baking for many years in our commercial kitchen

PLUS you’ll also learn how to make Charles’ best chocolate brownies and enjoy tea/coffee etc with plenty of opportunity to quiz us both about all the details.

Once that’s all done you’ll take home the four loaves (two Honeyed Wholemeal plus another two of one flavour choice from the list below) you’ve baked and also have the chance to buy all the equipment (short of your oven and kitchen units!) you’ll need to get started- if you don’t already have it at home.

You’ll take home the instructions you need and full recipe list for the following loaves:- White, Wholemeal, Rye, Honeyed Wholemeal Oat, Four Seed, Walnut Cinnamon & Raisin, Sundried Tomato Basil & Olive and finally the Cheese loaf (although they won’t have the option for the Cheese loaf to be made on the day due to extra time constraints involved).
