The Jalepeno and Cheddar Sour Dough class was my second class here. I truly enjoyed learning a new way to make and enjoy bread.
The class was very informative and the bread was top teir. Igor has the heart of a teacher and does a great job of incorporating the science behind the techniques. I can not wait to sign up for the next class to continue building on my skills.
If you are thinking of signing up .. 10/10 recommend.
