King Arthur Bread Baking Classes

[KyleW]

I hate to bring this thread back on topic but I just got a notice about a KA Master Sourdough class in NYC. It is in conjunction with Slow Food USA and is at the French Culinary Institute.

March 9th
10:00 - 5:00
$150

There are only 16 spots in the class and it's hands on. The instructor is Jeffrey Hammelman, Director of The Bakery and Baking Education Center @KA. He is one of less than 100 Certified Master Bakers in the U.S. For details call slow food @212-965-5640.

ooooooooooo, wish I could attend.

[KyleW]

Me too Sadly, March 9 happens to be my Most Awesome Girlfriend's birthday. She said I should go but I don't think I would enjoy it.

[Svadhisthana]

Kyle,
Each time you speak of your darling, I picture this beautiful creature walking around with a satin sash across her chest like Miss America that says "Most Awesome Girlfriend". I hope she has a wonderful birthday.

[KyleW]

You mean you don't have a sash?

[Svadhisthana]

It says "Most Spectacluar Wife, Mommy, and All Around Wonderful Person " but you could have guessed that. LOL.










back on topic: Risa, were you able to attend the King Arthur class last Thursday?

A distributor local to your area probably carries KA flour in 50 # sacks, too - at less than $15 per sack.

I unfortunately could not attend. The puppy got neutered that day and I couldn't leave him and the older dog alone. I was worried about the stitches getting torn out. I should have a sash that says "Bestest Mommy," but then people would think I'm even more crazy

[Svadhisthana]

Oh, I hope the puppy is doing o.k. Sorry you couldn't attend-I should let you know that the K.A. flour is on sale 1/2 off all week at Schnucks and I they have some high gluten in stock ( I just bought some this morning).

[Risa]

Thanks for the tip! I didn't read the flyers this weekend and probably wouldn't have gone to Schnuck's until next Saturday. Definitely want some of that high gluten to make some bagels and bialys.
