A World of Savory Delights
Welcome to the world of savory baking! While sweet baking is often seen as a luxury, savory baked goods are a meal in and of itself. They are nourishing, dynamic, and offers endless possibilities to transform simple ingredients into mouth-watering masterpieces.
In this course, Cynthia Barcomi will guide you through some of her favorite recipes. You'll discover the joy of a poppy seed bread with a hidden filling of sweet onions, and a red beet bread with a color so vibrant and a flavor so earthy, you'll never think of beets the same way again. Have you ever heard of bialys? These cousins of the bagel, originating from Białystok in Poland, are filled, then baked instead of boiled and are wonderfully delicious.
Prepare to create a stunning twisted garlic herb bread, where homemade garlic butter is woven directly into the dough for a sensory explosion. You'll also master a rustic crostata, its cornmeal crust filled with slow-roasted tomatoes and creamy ricotta—a complete meal perfect for a picnic. And finally, Cynthia will share the recipe for her favorite daily bread. It looks like it took days to perfect, but you'll find it's surprisingly simple and will quickly become a staple in your own kitchen.
Get ready to enjoy the journey of baking!
The most important ingredient is a happy baker.
