Wouldn't it be great to offer family and guests delicious, fresh, homemade breads free of additives and tasting oh so much better than most commercial loaves? amp;nbsp; These tasty, healthy additive-free breads can be easily and cheaply made at home using very few ingredients. amp;nbsp; On this course we will show you how to make simple basic breads which can be customised to suit your palate. amp;nbsp; We will define exactly what bread is and demonstrate easy, tasty recipes, some of which you can bake without yeast for a super fast loaf. amp;nbsp; Workshop led by Gabrielle Jackson, chef and ex BBC producer of series including Rhodes around Britain and Kitchen Chemistry. amp;nbsp; Gabrielle began making her own bread after she realised she was allergic to this most tasty food stuff. amp;nbsp; Experimenting with homemade bread she realised she was not allergic to wheat but to the many additives commercial bread often contains to speed its rise and give it longer shelf life. amp;nbsp; During this workshop you will learn the basics of bread making yourself and go home with a basket of delicious baked goods. amp;nbsp; It is also super satisfying - very good for anyone feeling stressed out after Christmas! amp;nbsp; Bread dough enjoys a good bashing! amp;nbsp; Meet: Occombe Farm Cookery School.
