Learn to Laminate: Kouign Amann Class

Join Liz and Stephanie, the bakers of James Beard nominated Kuluntu Bakery, for an evening learning how to laminate, shape and bake kouign amann!

Kouign amann is a laminated French pastry from the Brittany region of France. The name derives from the Breton language words for cake (kouign) and butter (amann).

During this class, you will learn:

• How to mix the kouign amann dough and shape the butter block
• How to laminate the dough by hand, the process of folding and rolling dough with butter, resulting in numerous thin, flaky layers
• How to proof and bake the kouign amann so that you get a caramelized finished
• Fun fillings to fill your pastries

Each participant will laminate their own dough, bake and take home six kouign amann pastries. Attendees will receive a kouign amann making guide and recipe.

This workshop is geared towards all levels of bakers. Small bites and beverages will be served. BYOB if you like!
