Bagels By Ginette

The class opened my eyes to sourdough baking. The one on one attention was my favorite part. My bagels were fabulous and my family likes them better than store bought (including bakery fresh)! We left with a dozen fresh bagels and enough dough to make 30 more plus sourdough starter. I would take more classes with her without hesitation.

Highly Recommend

This is a great sourdough class. Lisa is a Master of her craft and explains every step. The classes are small and intimate so everyone can understand the steps and questions are easily answered. A most enjoyable morning with great take homes
