Soft pretzels bring joy to bakers of every age and delight to every family member! This combination demonstration and interactive workshop will guide you through making soft pretzels from start to finish, complete with tastings of four distinct dipping sauces.
Select your preferred pretzel variety from multiple flour options, such as spelt and wheat flour. With the direction of your experienced culinary instructor, you will explore the microscopic universe of yeast, observing the dough transform and rise before your eyes as you learn the scientific principles underlying bread fermentation.
While your dough develops and rises, you will prepare several dipping sauces, ranging from easy to more complex creations: a honey mustard dip, a cinnamon chocolate drizzle, a sour cream sauce with horseradish and chive, and a pepper jack cheese sauce.
Following this, you will shape and form pretzels and master the correct techniques for baking these delightful treats. At the conclusion of class, you will taste-test your freshly prepared dipping sauces with warm, fresh-baked pretzels you created, and you will take home multiple pretzels and all the recipes.
