| There's nothing like the smell of freshly baked bread, especially if you've made it yourself! And on the 17th November, it's National Homemade Bread Day. The idea is that the day encourages us all to get making our own bread at home. I did a Bread Making Course with the Ashdown Cookery School in Sussex and it was great fun. I'd had it as a gift, and actually to my surprise, the bread I bought home with me was all right, in fact it was better than I expected! (I'm no cook, I can tell you!) Virgin Experience Days have a number of bread making experiences, such as these below... 
In London, there's a Bread Baking: Knead to Know Class at Jamie Oliver Cookery School
for £109.00. This three hour class covers the basics of bread making.
Start off with a welcome drink, and learn how to make the likes of
focaccia, crusty white rolls and stuffed wholewheat bread.
It's led by a professional chef at The Jamie Oliver Cookery School.
Enjoy a BLT sandwich using your crusty rolls and take home a lovely Italian style loaf!
Vegetarians and vegans can be catered for. Find out more here.
There's a Brockleby's Bakery Bread Making Course, Melton Mowbray, Leicestershire
for £51.00. Make and prove a spelt dough,
and a delicious spring onion and cheddar soda bread.
