Mykonian Farm Bakery Class with Brunch - Mykonos

This activity is a combination of a traditional baking class and an experience of the traditional animal and organic farming of a Mykonian Farm.

Here, we equip our potential or experienced “bakers” with the tools that they need in order to create delicious Mykonian bread.We will focus on mastering the fundamentals as well as discussing traditional techniques as we practice making our bread on our wood oven. Your instructor and host is the best around: Talented and exceptionally passionate about the craft of baking, she is more than excited to to pass along her tips, recipe and enthusiasm.

The activity takes place at the Mykonian Farm, where you will arrive just after 8:00. Your host will greet you with a traditional treat and make you feel welcomed and part of our family. You will then be taken to a specially arranged spot in order to start your baking lesson, and specifically with the kneading of the bread dough, an approximately 1-hour process. When you have finished, the dough is left to rest for approx. 45 minutes, during which time our farm tour takes place. By the time we finish, it will be time to continue with your baking lesson and to shape the bread into its final form. This step takes approx. 1,5 hours and when we are done, the bread in left in the oven for approx. 45 minutes.

When the baking process comes to an end, you will first taste your freshly baked bread and enjoy the outcome of your lesson. Our hostess will also teach you about Mykonian culture, the history of the island’s farming, its livestock and its crops and make you feel just as if you are visiting close relatives or friends. Brunch will be served with all the dishes made of genuine pure Mykonian products and of course all the ingredients are fresh and local. The experience will come to an end at approx. 1pm, when you are transferred back to your hotel.
