Course Description
This course will involve a fluid programme with multiple choices.
There is scope for the students themselves to set their own programme, while PANARY will only need to present a basic framework involving different grains, varying fermentation times and methods, working with sponges, and sourdough. Students can then assess results from various methods.
Yeasted pastries can be a major feature, with either croissants, brioche, or Danish being made daily. Tour the mill, observe the miller.
