It’s time to head back to school! But instead of the classroom, you’ll head into your kitchen to learn the basic tips and techniques of baking yeast bread. Each week, we’ll roll out a new skill for you to learn. After four weeks, you’ll be a bread-baking champ!
Week 1: Bread Dough Basics
Good bread starts with good bread dough. We’ll walk you through how to proof yeast, knead dough and proof dough. To step up your bread game, we’ll show you how to score bread to create picture-perfect loaves. Finally, we’ll teach you how to tell when bread is done so you know when to pull it out of the oven. You got this!
Week 2: Bread Pans
Bread comes in all shapes and sizes. Learn how to make bread in a loaf pan, a round pan, a Dutch oven and a cast-iron skillet. Even no pan at all! (Well, actually, you’ll make it free-form on a sheet pan.)
Week 3: Shaping Bread
Now that you’ve developed your bread dough skills, it’s time to have fun shaping it into different forms. From braids to knots to pumpkins (cute!), these are our favorite ways to shape bread dough.
