Course Description
We invite students who have taken Series I-IV on a trip abroad to learn with our friends at Ecole Internationale de Boulangerie (EIDB)!
EIDB is in the Alpes de Haute Provence region in the South of France. EIDB is a European leader in baking naturally leavened products founded by biologist and professor Thomas Teffri-Chambelland.
Most of this Series will be spent learning about naturally leavened bread and viennoiserie at EIDB. For one of the days, students will take a tour of a mill and bakery.

Course Materials
Listed below are the items you must bring to class.
- Pens or pencils. You will use these to take notes in the classroom and the lab.
- Permanent marker. This piece of “equipment” is invaluable in the labs.
- Hair restraint. For safety and sanitation, you must restrain your hair if it’s long.
Attire
- Closed-toe, comfortable shoes. Your shoes must be closed for safety. They should be comfortable enough to stand in all day.
- For safety, your pants must cover your entire legs. For your comfort, we recommend breathable pants. Checked chef’s pants are popular because they don’t show flour spills or stains.
- White chef’s coat. This is optional item. However, we strongly recommend chef’s coats because they look professional and protect your body and clothing. Most importantly, they keep you warm when it’s cold and cool when it’s hot.
