The Bagel Class presents : Montreal Bagel Making Workshop!
Description
Welcome to the only place in Montreal that will teach you how to make Montreal bagels! Montreal bagels are world famous for their shape, taste and texture. A trip to Montreal isn't complete until you've tried one of these amazing bagels. So why not try your hand at making them yourself? We will teach you the secrets on how to make some deliciously unique authentic Montreal style bagels at home, the easy way. We will start by learning how to properly mix and knead the dough. We will discuss how different flours and water amounts affect the final texture of the dough and crust. I have adapted the best Boulanger (Bread Maker) techniques to the home kitchen. You will become a confident baker at home in no time! We will go step by step from mixing the dough, letting it rest, to shaping the bagels, to boiling them, dressing them with various toppings, baking them and finally eating them! This workshop is super hands on so this is far from the "Watch the pro" type workshops out there.

A really fun way to learn how to do a new skill unique to Montreal. Good for beginners and advanced bakers alike, all seemed to have fun. The step by step instructions and setup were clear and made it very easy to follow. The instructor kept it light and fun while explaining the mechanics behind the ingredients and the process. Also had fun getting to know some of the other participants in the class. Best of all, you all get to share in enjoying bagels at the end!
Literally cannot recommend enough. Will was super nice and the class was very easy to follow. Yummy bagels too
Fun and delicious! Will is funny and a great teacher. Worth doing! Easy to get Uber to and from the location, too!
This class makes bagel making easy! Will was a great instructor and quite entertaining. Delicious warm bagels when you're done. A winner!
Will was a great teacher and very friendly and funny. We had an awesome time making bagels! Will made all the steps very easy and it’s cool to come home with the recipe.
This two hour class was entertaining and informative, with delicious results! Will was a tremendous host!
The class is really fun. Will is a great instructor, and the bagels tasted delicious. Would recommend.
I really did not want to leave Montreal without having the famous bagels. There is no better way than to make them yourself. Will was an engaging and easy to follow teacher--he will not allow you to fail! All of the materials you need to make the bagels is provided (including apron, bowls, scale, bench scraper, and ingredients). The workshop is well paced for all levels of baking expertise. I was there with my husband (who has been baking from the sourdough he's been nurturing for over 15 years), and we were across the table from people who had never put on an apron before. All of us enjoyed the experience. Will gave us the full recipe and had some of the items/ingredients for purchase in the shop so you can make your own bagels at home.
The instructor/ owner is very personable and organized. He treats all participants, whether you are a baker or not, equally He keeps the atmosphere light and gladly helps those need it. Best of all, you get to keep and eat the finished product, which is very good.
Loved this experience! Had so much fun making bagels and they were so good! Will was an awesome instructor! Would highly recommend!
