Laminated and Enriched Doughs with Ciril Hitz
March 15, 2019 @ 8:00 am - 4:00 pm
Butter is your new best friend, at least when it comes to creating delicate flaky layers in a croissant or a tender brioche! Working with master baker Ciril Hitz, this class will have you investigating the applications of two different lamination techniques over the course of the day. Laminate a traditional Danish dough to create a variety of sweet products, then work with a multigrain and einkorn laminated dough to explore the savory side. With both sweet and savory options, you will have a repertoire that covers all aspects of a menu!
