  • KCUL 0162 - Baking Science/Healthful/Special-Needs Baking

    Contact Hours: 135
    Industry troubleshooting requires competent observation of multiple reactions between ingredients, changes in ingredients and/or processes, the effects of heat transfer and the influence of technique. Instead of simply following a recipe this is an applied examination of the discipline of baking, how each of the major ingredient groups, including sweeteners, fats, milk and leavening agents, affect finished baked goods. Equivalent expertise involves applications for using whole grains, decreasing salt, sugar, and fat, and developing gluten-free, milk-free, and egg-free products for consumers with allergies or health concerns.

  • KCUL 0163 - Artisan Baking

    Contact Hours: 60
    Course focus is on minimally kneaded, refrigerator retarded, high hydration doughs.  Key characteristic of artisan  bread is the use of pre-ferments and starters. Examples of skills include fermentation, hand molding, oven management, nutritional and cultural research related to practice. Examination of crumb results in a more irregular hole structure due to the long fermentation time, higher hydration levels and care in handling. There is also almost universal agreement on the use of deck or hearth ovens as well as steam resulting in a thick brown crust.
