Join Crust Worthy Owner and Head Baker Chloe Newman in an exploration of one of our region’s favorite pseudo-grains: Buckwheat! Chloe will share some basic principles about buckwheat, where to source locally, how best to use it, and some of her favorite recipes. Chloe will then bake buckwheat cookies, and participants can bake along from home! A list of ingredients for the bake-along will be provided at least one week prior to the start of class.

Refunds will be issued up to 48 hours before the class.

Instructor: Chloe Newman

Chloe first fell in love with sourdough baking in 2016, although she’s always had a deep connection to cooking and the community of food. Naturally-leavened bread has become a strong expression of her overlapping backgrounds in visual art and organic life sciences, as well as her more recent studies in sustainability and local food systems.

In January 2019, Chloe became the founder and baker of Crust Worthy, a small-scale, community-supported baking operation, providing organic-grain, hand-crafted, naturally-leavened bread and specialty baked goods to local areas in Pittsburgh, PA. This winter she'll be a Maker in Residence for Chatham’s Center for Regional Agriculture, Food, and Transformation (CRAFT) where she can continue to develop her craft, expand her business, and engage her communities with sustainable baking.
