Show Me the Dough! So Chic x Maison Kayser : So Chic French Experience #1

Mmhm! There is nothing quite like the smell of a freshly baked French baguette! At French bakery Maison Kayser at Raffles Place, an exclusive experience for 17 participants, the first So Chic experience was a delicious success, a great Saturday afternoon – Bastille Day, no less! – mixing flour, kneading dough, exploring classic French baking and pastry craft.

Chef Gauthier Moysan shared a few tips on making the traditional French baguette, on how to get it light and airy with a wonderful crisp golden crust, before our participants got their hands into the flour and dough themselves. And since every dinner party needs a dessert, what could be more classy than a tarte au citron? A burst of candied zest, a delicate shortcrust pastry holding fresh lemon curd as its star ingredient, Chef David Landriot led everyone through the process, step-by-step.
