SUMMER BREADS with Dede Liss – Weekend Course, Saturday and Sunday 25/26 April

Over two days, you will make at least three loaves of your own to take home with you and learn all the skills of making Foccacia, olive sticks, Fatayer (little Lebanese pies), Pitta bread and Flammkuche, a delicious pizza-like flatbread typically coated with fromage blanc or crème fraîche, thinly sliced onions and lardons.

Topics covered will also include:

•  long fermentation yeasted dough
•  using a ‘biga’ or ‘pre ferment’
•  shaping dough
•  using a couche.

Ingredients and equipment including aprons are provided, and Dede’s own recipes will be shared at the end. To ensure individual tuition, numbers are limited to four. Dede will also provide free individual follow-up help after the course if you need it.
