ARTISAN BREAD SCHOOL®

WELCOME

What makes Artisan Bread School different?

Artisan Bread School courses are entirely hands-on; you will be making every bread start-to-finish alongside your colleagues & tutor. This includes creating your own sourdough leaven, mixing the dough, kneading, folding and the final shaping. When the breads are ready to bake you get to slash your own breads before they go into the oven. We repeat the techniques daily so when you leave you’re able to replicate the process at home. We work as a team in weighing up & general housekeeping.

And, our courses are limited to 5 participants, though occasionally we stretch that a bit.

Artisan bread is special: it demands a variety of skills, a knowledge of kneading, fermenting and shaping together with the essential ingredient of time. But artisan bread is more than the sum of its parts. It is a state of mind, a focus on what we are trying to achieve. It is a commitment to quality. It is an understanding that we do this out of determination to be individualists and eat only wonderful bread.” – Carl Shavitz

TESTIMONIALS

WHAT OUR ALUMNI SAY

When it comes to sourdough bread there’s no better teacher than Carl.

Unbelievable two days with Carl Shavitz, master bread maker,
here at South Farm handing down proper bread-making skills.

Highly recommend the course in Italy, one of the best experiences of my life!!!
