Tuesday, December 10, 2024 | 6:00PM - 9:00PM

Panettone is probably the most iconic Italian Christmas cake. It is instantly recognizable for its beautifully tall dome shape. Panettone is a sweet, soft, and buttery bread similar to brioche. The dough is traditionally loaded with lemon and/or orange zest, and a mix of dried and candied fruit and baked in a paper mold to give it the characteristic shape.
*If dried fruit isn’t your thing, we’ll also have chocolate chips and a variety of nuts including pistachios and hazelnuts to choose from.
Legend has it that Panettone’s origin goes back to the late 1400s… during a luxurious Christmas banquet given by the Duke of Milan, the desert they were meant to server was burnt. A kitchen apprentice called Toni, came up with a rich brioche bread filled with raisins and candied fruit. The Duke loved it, and so the tradition of 'Pane di Toni' was born and later changed to "panettone" and become a bread of luxury.

Chef Alex is our FABulous Guest Chef all the way from California for 4 full days teaching a different masterclass each day, so don’t delay…these classes will sell out quickly!
Pan de Muerto, is a fragrant sweet bread that has deep roots to ancient Aztec rituals and Spanish symbolism. Because of its fragrant qualities, the bread is said to serve as one of many ways to call on passed friends and loved ones; it is the centerpiece on many altars during the Day of the Dead. The multi-day holiday, known in Latin America as El Di´a de los Muertos is celebrated on November 1st and 2nd.
Pan de Muerto, meaning bread of the dead in Spanish, is made up using a sweet dough. The buttery dough contains orange peel and additional Agua de Azahar (orange blossom water). The breads are typically made up to represent a tomb or in some cases a corpse; our focus will be the tombs. Tumbas represent the bones and skull of the deceased loved one.
Students will learn about the process and techniques behind Tumbas (tombs), made in different sizes and using different decorating techniques. During the fermentation stage of the yeast-raised dough, students will learn how to make Polvorones de Naranja (orange flavored butter cookies). An easy cookie recipe with deep Moorish roots and flavored with orange peel.
The students will take home two iconic recipes, and a few boxes of sweet breads and pastries that can be enjoyed with loved ones. A great way to celebrate life all year long.

Ciambelle al Vino and Vin Brulé (Italian Wine Biscuits/Cookies & Mulled Wine)
Ciambelle al Vino and Vin Brulé
(Italian Wine Biscuits/Cookies & Mulled Wine)
Wednesday, December 20, 2023 | 6:00PM - 8:30PM
$169.00
Join one of our newest instructors, Mary Cotoia for a fun and festive evening learning to recreate Ciambelle al Vino and Vin Brulé!
This ancient Ciambelle recipe originated outside of Rome in the region of Lazio. Wine makers in the region used the wine being processed or whatever was left over in the vats for this rustic peasant recipe. These biscuits are a staple in Italian bakeries and in households in Rome and the Lazio region and are found in Italian bakeries around the world. They make a great dunking cookie for coffee or tea. However, if you are ever in Rome, you must do as the Romans do and respect their traditions. To enjoy them properly, you must soak them in wine, to the point of dipping your fingers!
So, given the season you’ll also make a batch of Vin Brulé (Italian Mulled Wine) to take home and enjoy with your Ciambelle whenever you like. During class you’ll get to nibble Mary’s Ciambelle and sip her Vin Brulé so you can bring home all of your delicious goodies! Best of all, these biscuits last ages so they are perfect for gift giving too!
This is a traditional Italian recipe for wine cookies: tasty, original (with a few tweeks) and affordable for everyone. With these cookies you can pamper and surprise your guests. So let's see how to make these simple "ciambelle al vino" that taste of Italian tradition and antiquity. Cambelle means round, or ring, which is the traditional shape of these biscuits, but Mary will teach you to make twists and knots as well.
Mary prefers a richer taste and opts for a traditional sweet red wine to which she adds a secret ingredient, but you’ll have the option to use either a red or white wine to create your biscuits.
