Anyone from a chef to a farmer, as well as bakers in small and large bakeries, will find interest in the specialized All You Knead to Know – An Artisan and Grain workshop just for the baking industry. On May 17, participants will learn about OSU’s wheat breeding program and why there are many different kinds of flours on the market. In addition, participants will learn baking techniques from baking experts through hands-on activities.
Baked goods made from grain have been a global state of life for over several millenniums. It has provided calories and protein to generations of people when other foods were not available. Amazingly, to a lot of people, how to bake a loaf of bread at home is still a mystery, let alone, knowing how the grain was produced that supplied the flour. Anyone from a chef to a farmer, as well as bakers in small and large bakeries, will find interest in this specialized workshop just for the baking industry. Baking is an art and a food science that allows many components to work together.
