JANUARY 25, 2025: Khachapuri Partner Brunch
$250.00
Date: Saturday, January 25, 2025
Cost: $250 per couple (PRICE INCLUDES ENTRY FOR TWO PEOPLE)
Join us at Barton Springs Mill for a hands-on class in making Adjaruli Khachapuri, Georgia’s iconic boat-shaped bread filled with melty cheese, butter, and topped with a silky, runny egg yolk.
In this class, you’ll learn how to craft this show-stopping dish from scratch using a high-hydration dough made with Butler’s Gold heirloom flour. This lightly enriched dough creates a soft, creamy crumb with a crisp crust, forming the perfect base for the rich, cheesy filling.
To ensure an authentic experience, we’ll use cheese crafted by ZakFarm USA, a passionate Ossetian family who brought their rich culinary traditions to the U.S. They hand-make their dairy products with care and dedication. Their cheese is the most authentic you can find in the U.S., bringing the flavors of the region straight to your plate. Each participant will enjoy a tasting set of 4-5 types of cheese, showcasing the variety and quality of their craft. At the end of the class, you’ll have the opportunity to purchase the cheese that wins over your taste buds. Don’t miss this delicious journey into culinary heritage!
ZakFarm is a family business. When this Ossetian family arrived in the U.S. in 2023, they faced an unexpected challenge: finding high-quality dairy products to match the traditions of their cuisine. Determined to preserve their culinary heritage, they began making their own cheese, sour cream, and cottage cheese from raw milk. What started as a personal project quickly grew into a successful family business. Today, they produce and deliver fresh, handmade dairy products—like cheese, sour cream, and butter—across the East Coast, Atlanta, and Texas. Their commitment to quality and tradition shines in every product, offering customers a taste of authentic Ossetian flavors.
What You’ll Learn:
- The fundamentals of high-hydration dough for soft, airy bread with a crisp crust
- Traditional and locally available cheese combinations for the ultimate gooey filling
- Taste and use authentically made Ossetian cheese and have the opportunity to purchase onsite to have at home
- Shaping methods for the signature khachapuri “boat”
- Tips on how to prepare dough in advance for quick, freshly baked Khachapuri — perfect for a warm breakfast or a delicious hot appetizer
