About
A 4-day immersive hands-on workshop exploring grain as an ingredient with identity, origin, and purpose.
Flour is one of the most widely used yet least understood ingredients in baking.
This workshop is designed to change that. Working with freshly stone-milled, Pacific Northwest–grown grains, you'll discover how grain identity, origin, and freshness can transform both the flavor and philosophy of your baking. This is not just a technique class — it's a rethinking of what's in your hands.
