We will begin this class by using a Roasted Red and Black Pepper dough and Pesto dough to form a two-colored Christmas braid. This will become a favorite savory bread to match any holiday dinner. The second dough is Kathy’s basic lemon sweet dough which will be converted into Grand Marnier Pecan Sticky Buns as well as a lovely filled Lemon Almond Braid. This dough can also become a lovely Kolach or Nut Filled Roll. You will be making the savory braid in class. Kathy will demonstrate the sticky buns and the lemon braid which you will be tasting. Toward the end of class, Kathy will demonstrate how to make the savory dough and you will be making the lemon sweet dough to take home. Please bring a medium size bowl and some brown lunch bags.
