Bake Around the World: A Global Bread Baking Series

https://www.themaryc.art/classes/p/bake-around-the-world-a-global-bread-baking-series

June 27th, 2-5PM — Ciabatta (Italy): Create rustic Italian ciabatta, known for its airy interior and crisp crust, and discover how this modern bread became a staple for sandwiches and everyday meals.

Join our hands‑on bread education series as we explore the world through its most beloved traditional breads! Each month we’ll dive into the cultural history and baking techniques behind iconic breads, learning not only how they’re made but why they matter in their home countries. Through shared baking experiences and stories, participants will connect with global cultures and each other—fostering community one loaf at a time.

Students will need to bring an apron and a mixing bowl (4-quart size or larger), as they’ll be mixing their dough in class and taking it home to bake.
