About this event

Whether you call it pulla, kardeumumabröd, or coffee bread, a classic Nordic bread combines floral cardamom, a crunchy sugar topping, and a beautiful braided presentation into a show-stopping yeasted loaf. Finland and Sweden’s answer to a challa, Cardamom Bread is commonly enjoyed as part of a fika or coffee hour, but is equally at home on the breakfast table—it makes especially stellar french toast! Since it’s hard to find in bakeries, your best bet is to tackle it at home, and luckily Kristi Bissell of the blog True North Kitchen is ready to walk through each step in this hourlong tutorial. From kneading to proofing, shaping, and baking, this demo will cover all steps for students to tackle this recipe at home. Additional information: This class is presented as a demonstration, so students can watch the entire process and ask questions before tackling the dishes later. The recipe packet will be available for download one week in advance. Advanced registration required. Virtual Class info: This is a live, virtual class taught through Zoom. Students need a strong internet connection and a device with video capabilities. Anyone is welcome to register for the class even if they don’t plan to attend live, as the class will be recorded, and the recording made available for all registrants for one month after class for re-viewing.
