THE SANTA MONICA CHOCOLATE SOCIETY: Spinnaker Chocolate
 

Join us for a special night at Santa Monica Chocolate Society to meet Seattle Chocolate Maker Kelly Van Arsdale of Spinnaker Chocolate Seattle, WA. We will be zooming in with Kelly to hear about how he and his brother Chris started this award-winning chocolate company in 2021. The name Spinnaker is inspired by their love for the ocean, and they are avid sailors, snorkelers, divers and paddle boarders. 1% of Spinnaker's profits go towards cleaning up ocean and marine debris!

Spinnaker's unique techniques, including roasting their beans after shelling them, are both quality and scientifically driven. This gives a more consistent roast profile and enhances the flavor of their chocolate. We're so excited to be tasting a wide range of their special bean-to-bar craft chocolate collection.

* Please refrain from wearing colognes, perfume or scented lotions before class *

SOURDOUGH 101
 

Gather 'round as we knead, stretch, fold and proof our way to beautiful, naturally leavened loaves. You'll come into class and shape two loaves of bread using dough our chef has prepared; one boule and one pan loaf. Once nestled in proofing baskets and loaf pans to rise, we will gather to learn about the science of wild yeast, gluten and explore the rainbow of flavors and textures of different varieties of heirloom grains milled in Pasadena at Grist & Toll ! You'll taste Spelt, Rye, Hard Reds and Whites and Sonora wheats before choosing your favorites to make your own bread dough.

Following a quick break, you'll feed a sourdough starter and prepare a levain, then mix the dough you'll take home to bake your own loaves after class. Once the loaves you shaped are fully proofed, we'll learn to expertly slash and bake them and, while they're busy baking away in the ovens, we will make a batch of jam and churn some butter with the loveliest cream from our friends at Straus.

Please bring one large bowl to class, a jar for your starter and a large paper bag to carry your loaves home with! Stone-milled flours from Grist & Toll are available for purchase in our storefront for all your bread-making dreams.

LEARN THE SCIENCE BEHIND:
Wild yeast
Fermentation
Hydration and Extraction
Milling and history of wheat cultivation
 
MAKE:
Sourdough Starter
Dough for Two Loaves of Bread
 
BAKE OFF:
1 Boule
1 Pan Loaf

The Mighty Lentil
 

Discover the most powerful protein in your pantry.  Did you know that according to the Washington Post, “Pound for pound, raw lentils have more protein than steak, and while not as protein-dense once cooked, they pack even more iron than meat, in addition to other vitamins and minerals”? What is even more fascinating is the lentils' important role in the fight against climate change.  “While start-ups scramble to engineer a sustainable protein, from lab-grown meat to fake burgers, lentils are a ready solution, one with a proven record”  Join us to learn more about why lentils can help battle climate change and why Americans eat the least amount of lentils in the world.

BAGUETTE, EPI, & FOUGASSE
 

Master the art of a perfectly shaped baguette! We will be working with white and whole wheat doughs as you learn to mix, knead and shape baguettes and other regional French breads like epi and fougasse. Our methods center around traditional techniques and eschew gadgets like baguette pans and perforated sheets. You'll only knead your hands, a pizza stone and the techniques you'll master in class to recreate your own delicious loaves at home.

Please bring a large bowl with you to class as well as a paper bag to carry home the loaves of bread baked off in class.

SOURDOUGH 101
 

Gather 'round as we knead, stretch, fold and proof our way to beautiful, naturally leavened loaves. You'll come into class and shape two loaves of bread using dough our chef has prepared; one boule and one pan loaf. Once nestled in proofing baskets and loaf pans to rise, we will gather to learn about the science of wild yeast, gluten and explore the rainbow of flavors and textures of different varieties of heirloom grains milled in Pasadena at Grist & Toll ! You'll taste Spelt, Rye, Hard Reds and Whites and Sonora wheats before choosing your favorites to make your own bread dough.

Following a quick break, you'll feed a sourdough starter and prepare a levain, then mix the dough you'll take home to bake your own loaves after class. Once the loaves you shaped are fully proofed, we'll learn to expertly slash and bake them and, while they're busy baking away in the ovens, we will make a batch of jam and churn some butter with the loveliest cream from our friends at Straus.

Please bring one large bowl to class, a jar for your starter and a large paper bag to carry your loaves home with! Stone-milled flours from Grist & Toll are available for purchase in our storefront for all your bread-making dreams.

LEARN THE SCIENCE BEHIND:
Wild yeast
Fermentation
Hydration and Extraction
Milling and history of wheat cultivation
