Fun and short class for foodies! Learn basic pronunciation of common French words seen on restaurant menus, in cookbooks and online. Impress friends and family over the holidays with your knowledge of la magnifique cuisine francaise. Email ameyherman@gmail.com for questions.

Get up to your elbows in flour to learn the basics of “artisan” breads. What are they, how can I make them, what ingredients do I need? Learn the answers to these questions and more in an intensive, all day, hands-on bread class--for beginners and experienced bakers. You’ll make them, bake them and take them home with you. You’ll also take home sourdough starter. Straight doughs, pre-ferments and starters will become part of your baking vocabulary. Bring an apron, a bench scraper and bowl scraper, if you have them, and an item to throw in the community soup pot, such as garden veggies, beans, rice or pasta. Wear closed-toe shoes for safety, bring a large bag to carry home your breads, and meet in the Center Building Cafeteria food court by the Titan Bookstore.
