SUMMARY:ITALIAN COUNTRY BREAD MAKING
DESCRIPTION:Experience the art of traditional Italian bread-making in this hands-on masterclass inspired by the rustic kitchens and wood-fired ovens of Italy. Using just flour\, water\, yeast\, and salt\, you’ll learn to create a range of regional breads using time-honoured techniques and stone-ground flours. Guided by our expert baker\, you’ll hand-make up to four classic Italian breads to take home – from the golden\, open-crumbed Pane Pugliese to the salt-free\, Tuscan staple Pane Toscano\, the airy\, chewy Ciabatta\, and olive oil-rich Focaccia.
