About
Transform your kitchen into a pastry shop filled with buttery, flaky baked goods once you’ve mastered yeasted dough lamination. Argentinian pastry chef Pam Arriagada leads this full-day workshop to show you how. This is the dough and technique for making croissants, but Arriagada will show you how to go beyond croissants.
Learn not only the basics of bread making but all about yeasted enriched dough and how to laminate butter into it and shape it into medialunas, facturas, and savory morning buns.
On the menu
- Medialunas: Argentinian cousin to the croissant, these crescents of flaky layers are finished with an orange-scented sweet glaze.
- Facturas: These Argentinian sweet pastries, akin to Danishes, are filled with dulce de leche, pastry cream, and quince paste.
- Savory morning buns: These are filled with cheddar cheese, scallions, and sausage, then baked until crispy.

Pam Arriagada
After 10 years in academia, and due to life’s twists and turns, she decided to give professional baking a try. While working at a few bakeries around Seattle, she had the opportunity to translate her knowledge as a scientist and home-baker into the professional baking world. She realized that cooking is like having your own lab right here on Earth. Pam is thrilled to share everything she’s learned throughout her life as both a scientist and a cook with everyone who takes her classes at BARN.
