Come take this pastry crash course with us, where you will learn the fundamental French pastry dough method applicable to éclairs, gougères, profiteroles, and more.
In this class with Ashley Whitmore, you’ll dive into what makes our flours unique in pastry applications. Ashley will teach you how to make your own choux pastry from scratch, and guide you through how to choose the right stone-milled flour for this delectable pastry. Choux is a foundational pastry technique that involves cooking your flour to yield a pipe-able, moldable, and supremely tender dough. You will learn how to make and utilize choux pastry in both sweet and savory applications - after this class, you'll be ready to make èclairs, profiteroles, gougères and more! As a bonus, Ashley will go over techniques for fillings and glazes - think creme patisserie and chocolate glaze - so your home confections will look fit for a French pastry case.
All levels welcome! Choux is an intermediate technique that will improve pastry arts for beginner thru advanced chefs. Expect to learn a LOT and don't be afraid to ask questions!

- Have an opportunity to work with our own fresh grains and flours, grown organically and stone-milled onsite!
