Krazi Baker

5.0(5)·From £55.00·3h

Dromore in County Antrim might be a small town, but it's home to something remarkable in the range of traditional Irish baking. Krazi Baker operates from this Northern Ireland base, where Mark has built a reputation that extends far beyond the local area through his exceptional work with potato bread.

The school specialises entirely in Bread Making, with a laser focus on traditional Irish breads that have been passed down through generations. This isn't about trendy sourdoughs or continental styles, but rather the authentic breads that have sustained Irish families for centuries. The approach centres on reviving the skills that many people's parents and grandparents would have taken for granted, using the finest local Northern Irish ingredients.

The Traditional Irish Bread Class runs for three hours and costs from £55, giving you the chance to choose which type of potato bread you want to master. Mark's credentials in this area are impressive - he recently claimed first, second and third places in the World Bread Awards Potato Bread category. His winning breads included plain potato bread (first place), potato apple (second), and cheese and chive (third). During the class, you'll learn the traditional techniques behind these celebrated recipes, working with ingredients sourced locally rather than relying on processed alternatives. The session covers everything from mixing and shaping to cooking on the traditional hot plate, ensuring you understand each step of the authentic process.

This school suits anyone interested in connecting with Irish culinary heritage through hands-on learning, particularly those who value traditional methods and local ingredients over modern shortcuts.
