Bagels! - In Person

A hands-on in-person cooking class culminating in a dinner served with wine and beer. This class is limited to 12 students. Review our registration and cancellation policies here. Masks are welcome.

Ahhh, bagels. A staple of the breakfast table, bagels also incite discussions on who makes the best ones. Learn how to make your own fresh bagels with Jennifer, our resident baking instructor. She will walk you through how to make the dough, form it into bagels, boil them, bake them, and eat them! (We doubt you will have little trouble figuring out that last step.) Jennifer will also share some recipes behind a variety of delectable schmears. During class, students will work in small groups to make bagels, but once baked, students will settle into a bounty of bagels, shmears, and vegetarian salad to round out the spread.

 
MENU:

Three styles of bagels: Montreal-style, cinnamon-raisin, 100% whole grain bagels

We'll add a seasonal vegetarian salad to complement the dinner spread.  And as stomachs have limits, there will be leftover bagels to take home from class!
