Raising Dough for Cancer–it’s official!

To date, Rebecca Anderson has raised over $8,200—much more than she had ever thought possible. Given that there is still time to raise money, and that there is never enough money for causes as important as this one, she now has her sights set on $10,000. To help her get there, we have put together a bread making class that we’ve dubbed Raising Dough for Cancer.

If you love food as much as we do, this event is for you! A fantastic cookbook store in Westmount, Appetite for Books, is hosting the three-hour class in their picture-perfect teaching kitchen, where I will share some recipes, including those for Boston Brown Bread, Mini Rustic Buns, Homemade Breadsticks, and a divine Chocolate Brioche. Served alongside the bread will be dips and sides by Vanessa Laberge, chef de cuisine at Olive+Gourmando, and a couple of nice glasses of wine (generously donated by Philippe Dandurand Wines) to wash it all down. If that wasn’t enough, each participant will take home a copy of one of my favourite cookbooks, Flatbreads and Flavours by Jeffrey Alford and Naomi Duguid (Harper Collins Canada). Put it all together and you have the perfect recipe for an educational, scrumptious, entertaining and rewarding evening.

Tickets for Raising Dough for Cancer are $125 per person with a maximum of 10 participants. If you are interested in breaking bread with us, please contact Rebecca by email or call her at 515 524 9225.

If you simply want to make a donation, there’s still time: http://my.e2rm.com/personalPage.aspx?SID=2194899.

Thanks,
Marc-André and Rebecca
