Join Chef Alex Peña, a California native, a former Marine, a passionate Master Baker, trained culinary chef, and a professional bread scientist for a Bizcocho Masterclass.
The buttery Bizcocho dough is a direct descendent to the French Brioche; however, the recipes for this yeast-raised dough have been enhanced with coarse ground cinnamon and vanilla extract. A recipe that Chef Alex has perfected and can be used as a base for an entire showcase of pan dulce.
During this class, the students will learn about the technique and baking process on how to make five different sweet breads. Beginning with the iconic Conchas (seashells), before making Chilindrinas (crying child, or having no significance whatsoever), Nubes (clouds), Volcanes (volcanoes), and the Cuerno Bizcocho (bull horn). Every sweet bread contains a unique sugar topping and in the case of the Chilindrina, additional rock sugar. The students will take home a total of seven recipes, and a plethora of baking knowledge.
