Great War Baking

Over the last couple of months, students at Newcastle College have researched and tried out different recipes from the Great War era. From trench cake to Anzac biscuits, and from soups to stews, each nation had its own treats to support their men at the front line.

During this workshop, Nigel Grant, Head of Pastry and Baking at Newcastle College, will teach various dishes that were popular on the home front during the First World War, resulting in a three course meal. The workshop will take place in the professional kitchen of the Lifestyle Academy.

The workshop itself will last three hours, after which you’ll have the option of a two-course lunch at the Academy’s restaurant.
