This week in The Atelier of Taste, children have been baking bread. The group gathered their ingredients that they would need in order to bake the most delicious loaf! They started to mix flour, water and oil together to make a "sticky, but consistent dough"
"How will the bread get big?"
From previous experiences, children came to the conclusion that their dough lacked a key ingredient.
"It needs something else"
"I think it's called wheat"
They were in fact looking for yeast, which unfortunately we were unable to find within our kitchen. So we went on a trip to our main school kitchen where our chefs were kind enough to give the children yeast in order for the dough to rise.
After adding the yeast, the children started to add rosemary and oregano as they started to explore with herbs.
"It will give the bread an extra kick"
After spending time kneading and rolling their dough it was finally time to put it in the oven, were the aroma of herbs transcended across the provision.
"What is that delightful smell?"
The Atelier of Taste will continue...
