Become an Artisan Breadmaker.

Tuesday, February 22nd, 2011

There’s nothing like the smell of freshly baked bread, especially the kind with a firm crust and perfectly soft centre that’s just come out of your very own oven. That first spread of butter and straight in your mouth… complete and utter satisfaction.

If this is something you’ve never experienced, we can change that. Well, Tim Faull can change it, to be more precise. His course -Knead to Know: A Sensory Journey to Artisan Baking – teaches you the complete fundamentals on how to bake like a professional at home. From your own starter mix to baking a wide variety of breads (including barley, potato & rosemary, health seed bread, sour dough bread, multi seed health bread, cottage loaf, ciabatta, baguette, spelt bread, cabernet bread and naan bread), the course gives you the knowledge and skills to continue the artisan baking traditions of yesteryear.

The five-part course runs Wednesday’s in March (2nd, 9th, 16th, 23rd & 30th) from 5.30pm – 8.30pm. Course fee is R3,000, including all notes, sampling of foods and wine during classes. We have a few spots left – bookings via rachel@chefswarehouse.co.za.

Artisan Baking Kits.

Thursday, July 22nd, 2010

Master baker Tim Faull started his Knead to Know baking course this week at Chefs Warehouse. At Tim’s first class, he took us through the difference between artisan baking and modern baking, the romance and skill involved and also how to make a sourdough starter. Liam christened his starter Tim Jnr., in honour of Tim himself. Tim Jnr. is bubbling away in the office right now, having just been fed (flour, yoghurt milk and apple juice).

To coincide with this baking focus, we’ve got some great baking accessories in the shop. If you want to make bread like a professional, get the same tools as the professional. Everything from stone-ground flour and trays to complete bread kits, we’ve got it. The bread making kits have the flour, yeast, seeds and everything else you need. They come in varieties that include: Italian ciabatta, baguette, cider bread, multiseed loaf, Portuguese, sourdough, spelt, wheat-free, all priced from R75 upwards. Pictured above: Terracotta baking stone – R180, Full-sized couche – R430, dough cutters – (various sizes ) R15 – R60, stainless steel sliding tray – R185 , bakers paddle R250, Teflon sheet – R105, Flour brush R205, bakers knife – R295 , rolling pin – R225, pastry brushes, R115/R150.
