Class Type: Hands-On! | These are our most involved and participatory classes, where you get the opportunity to learn a hands-on skill. Anyone can do it, though--no prior experience required to attend!
WHAT YOU'LL GET IN THIS CLASS:

- Hands-on experience making your own rough puff pastry dough to take-and-bake and a pie dough using the fraisage method from scratch, which you'll use to make hand pies and bake off during the class.
- Coffee, tea, juice, and other beverages.
- Pastries to snack on and learn from.
- Take-home notes and recipe.
- Some lasting memories!
Buttery, flaky, and shatteringly crisp pastry is essential in a baker's repertoire. But puff pastry can be time-consuming and finicky! We'll show you two great alternatives to full puff pastry, though: rough puff and a pie dough using the fraisage method. Rough puff has all the texture and flavor of all puff pastry without the the fuss, while dough made with the fraisage method gets you lamination almost on par with croissants. Join Chef Zoe in this hands-on class, where you'll learn the skill of making rough puff pastry and pie doughs from scratch. We'll cover everything from the importance of buying quality ingredients, keeping things cool, how to bring your dough all together, and its perfect applications to make ultra-flaky pie crusts, turnovers, palmiers, tarts, and more. In addition to making your own take-and-bake rough puff, you'll make hand pies from your fraisage dough to bake off during the class. We'll also have some pastries baked off for you to enjoy, pull apart, and study so you can get a sense of how it all comes together. Bakers of all skill level are welcome!
