Kuya Andrew and I took a baking class at the Center for Asian Culinary Studies here in Davao City. Our instructor was Chef Jun-jun de Guzman, and there were 7 of us in the class. I was tasked to bake Focaccia Bread and French Rolls. Kuya also baked French Rolls and Ciabatta.

It was a very educational but also very tiring experience. The kneading was the worst part. ARGH! Luckily, my Foccacia and French Rolls came out great. But the best bread were the Dinner Rolls. Chef Jun-jun also concocted a dip which he only thought of right that moment. It was yummmmmy!

We have another class tomorrow. We will be baking whole wheat bread, blueberry bread, walnut loaf, cuban loaf, and potato bread among others. I’m already excited, but scared at the same time. I hope those breads require less kneading. HAHA!
