Maria Rossi's second love after lean sourdough is enriched bread. Her brioche recipe has been featured in Food & Wine, and her challah workshop sells out within hours of announcement. She brings the same scientific rigor to enriched doughs that made her fundamentals course so beloved.

I never thought sourdough could be this soft. Maria's brioche lesson is the best bread instruction I've ever received. My family requests it weekly now.

The milk bread recipe alone is worth the course. It rivals any Japanese bakery I've been to β€” and it's sourdough-based, so it's actually easier to digest.

Challah braiding was harder than expected, but Maria's slow-motion breakdowns made it click. Would love a lesson on two-strand twists too.
