The Art of Bread Making, Sat., August 29, 2009

What a great event, twelve ladies and one man, courageous one that he was, attended a baking class/demonstration by guest baker, Laura Carey.  From the time they showed up to have scones, devonshire cream and hot, loose leaf tea, the group was enthusiastic and immediately connected.  When Laura began it was clear that this was not just a recipe following exercise, there was passion in her voice and words and she was able to express what a "spiritual" adventure it is to bake, have your hands in the dough and the anticipation in your mind/as to what will come out of the oven.  Without a doubt the over riding theme was cleaniness, temperatures, were important, however, following a recipe is absolutely necessary. General cooking can allow creativity, baking and specifically specialty bread baking requires attention to following a recipe for content, as well as agenda in things to accomplish.  Laura was a hit and the ladies invited her back in January, 2010, to do a class/demonstration on "sour dough" breads.  I just love watching ladies have a good time, enjoy themselves and these special events are one way that they can.
