Shh....top secret...   

Johnson & Wales is an incredible facility and we have created an amazing opportunity especially for you. Join Chef Peter Reinhart, recipient of the prestigious James Beard award and author of five books including American Pie, The Bread Baker’s Apprentice, Whole Grain Breads and Artisan Breads Everyday, as he demonstrates a variety of bread-baking techniques.

 Both of these classes are exclusive for quilters, and he will be demonstrating in the high-tech amphitheater, Hance Auditorium. Each class is followed by a tasting reception and book signing.



CHEF DEMO #1 • June 4, 2010 • 2:30-5:30pm • Artisan Breads


This class focuses on new baking techniques for making artisan-quality breads without monopolizing all your time! Learn methods utilizing refrigeration as a way to slow down fermentation, allowing you to make doughs up to four days in advance of baking.


Demonstrations of favorite recipes from Chef Reinhart’s latest book Artisan Breads Everyday will include French-style hearth breads, chocolate babka, sweet dough turned into three variations (cinnamon sticky buns, crumb cake, and fruit-filled breakfast rolls) and golden challah.


CHEF DEMO #2 • June 5, 2010 • 2:30-5:30pm • American Pie: Making Perfect Pizza

Chef Reinhart shares the art of making pizza and focaccia with recipes from his best-selling book, American Pie: My Search For The Perfect Pizza.

Experience authentic Neapolitan and Ligurian recipes that you can easily replicate at home, such as the Classic Naples Margherita, Focaccia a la Genovese, and others. Using an array of toppings, including smoked cheeses, meats, and caramelized balsamic onions, will allow you to create customized pizzas to please every palate.
