Welcome To Baking Class
Thanks for coming everybody, and if you're a new baker, for stepping up to help the kitchen. Respect.
The class is informal and relaxed. Feel free to ask questions, shout out if or when you're stuck / need some help and remember, there are no dumb questions, ever. There's usually plenty of flour flying around so feel free to mess up. It's how we learn.
One of our bakers usually instructs (m'self today), while GYB facilitates the Q&A and discussions. Regular bakers are also usually in-thread, dropping in when they can, helping to answer the Q&As.
Soโฆ.. feel free to ask any questions about anything regarding baking, even if you're not learing to bake today.
We are all here dedicating our time to teach you and pass on our knowledge to you, new bakers. We want to help you in whichever way we can. Please give us feedback and let us know how we can.
Once you decide you're ready to bake, we will all continue to help you, so don't feel you'll be out on your own in the wild west.
Thank you bakers, thank you BO.
Here's what we'll be doing this eveningโฆ
-
For anyone who wants to learn, hit me up and I'll post the teaching materials.
-
For anyone who has any questions about anything specific, please fire away and we'll do our best to answer.
-
As GYB said at the start, we thought we'd have a brainstorm this evening to come up with a list of tips for new bakers, or "10 most common mistakes by new bakers and how to avoid them".
GYB, you've got a list of what we have already, yes? How about we start with discussing those and adding any more?
