Better Baking with Whole Grains

Thomas Wiesmann and Jakob Limacher

SAVE THE DATE – REGISTRATION WILL OPEN SOON

100% whole grain flour: dry, crumbly, and boring? No, there’s another way. In this course, we’ll open up a whole new world of baking and show you how to bake moist, light, and especially delicious breads, rolls, and sweet pastries using whole grain flour.

We’ll be baking with 100% whole grain flour made from rye, wheat, and spelt. Using recipes, we’ll walk you through every step to create moist, light, and flavorful baked goods. We’ll make breads (a mixed-grain loaf and a spelt loaf), rolls, a pizza variation for dinner, and a sweet pastry. All made with 100% whole grain. We’ll use rye sourdough starter.
