About the Event
Join Howard Middleton (GBBO, series 4) live from his kitchen in Sheffield as he shows you how to master the art of hot water crust pastry to make a delicious batch of savoury pies. Whether you choose classic pork or favour a veggie filling, these pies are the perfect addition to a picnic, ploughman's lunch or party buffet. Howard will also demonstrate the traditional tangy accompaniment of English mustard pickle, aka Piccalilli.
This class will be on Sunday 7th March at 8pm UK.We’ll start off the class with an introductory welcome and some background from Howard's time on TV, before we ask you to put on our aprons & bake along as you watch Howard demonstrate all the skills required to make this lovely treat.
Our class will take around an hour and fourty-five minutes as we bake our masterpieces, before you can tuck into the fruits of your labour all whilst hearing fantastic memories and stories from Howard.
