The Wheat Class

Would you like to start using your wheat WITHOUT using a wheat grinder? Use your wheat to save money on your grocery bill, add fiber to your diet, and feel confident in the event that you had to live off if it. The number one complaint with using wheat flour is that bread ends up heavy and crumbly – This is easily corrected with a few pointers and a little practice. In this class bread is made from the beginning and you can sample bread that has already aged several days. Even an experienced bread maker will usually pick up a few tips, and if you are switching from white to wheat flour it can be like starting over.

Instructions on how to use wheat for many other items besides bread such as: cracked wheat for hot cereal, snicker-doodles, pancakes, wheat berry sprouts, croutons, adding 'chewies' to your recipes, and even growing and harvesting wheatgrass. We will be covering the different types of yeast, and how to use them properly, and wheat terms.

Class runs 1 1/2 -2 hours. Cost is $18.00.

As a host for this class, you will receive (in addition to coming for free!) a fresh baked loaf of bread, a frozen loaf of bread (ready to bake fresh when you are ready to eat!), blender pancake mix, sprouts and a planted start of wheatgrass.
