2026 Dates: February 28, March 1, & 2 (in Seville, Spain)

A 3-day master class for anyone and everyone who wants to bring good bread back into their diets.
Learn about the theory of bread-making (yes, it's just as important) and practical hands-on bread production.
 

The purpose of this master class is to learn how to make bread the old-fashioned way, using both hand and machine, with ancient wheat flour. We will make 2 or 3 kinds of bread every morning. We will learn various cooking techniques, flavorings, and timing, and their effects on bread-making.
 

We will learn how to start a starter, how to keep a starter alive, and how to use a starter. We will also use fresh yeast for certain types of bread, including but not limited to hamburger buns and brioche. We will also create flavored bread using seeds and cereals, cacao, figs, walnuts . . .  Each participant will take home the bread they have made.
 

At the end of each day, we'll finish the class with a bread tasting & discuss the bread we've produced with a glass of wine, cheese, and a light late lunch.

Please note that the bread you will bake may vary in each session, but will always include the French baguette, brioche, cocotte bread, and quick table bread rolls.
