About

Artisan Bread School was established by Carl Shavitz to help revive the art of bread making. He has brought together some of Europe's top bakers to teach students how to bake delicious, nutritious and healthy artisan breads in their own kitchens.

The School's hands-on courses will specialize in European and English breads - sourdoughs, as well as a wide-range of Italian specialties like focaccia and ciabatta.

Set in the rural Tuscan village of Mercatale di Cortona, in the Val de Pierle, students live in surroundings that will take them back to another time and place.
