Legendary recipes sometimes fail to live up to their own hype–and Sachertorte, perhaps one of Austria’s most famous culinary exports, is no exception. Luisa Weiss, an expert on German baking and the author of “Classic German Baking,” is here to show you the path to the quietly spectacular and perfect Sachertorte. You’ll learn how to achieve the velvety light texture, and will learn Luisa’s thoughts on whether to put your layer of apricot jam, which gives the cake a subtle fruity note, in the middle of the cake or on the top. Whether you’re a pro looking for a new Valentine’s Day twist, an aspiring baker or just a fan of culinary trivia, there’s something here for everyone. Join us for a class that just might dethrone your current favorite chocolate cake! Date | Saturday, February 12 from 10 a.m. to 11:15 a.m. Location | Online via Zoom Register here! General admission is $24.95 per person. Must register to attend. For more information, please visit the class' Eventbrite page or email cookingschool@177milkstreet.com.
