Masterclass 1 -
the great british baking show

It's the calm after the Season 5 baking storm, and Paul Hollywood and Mary Berry take over the Baking Show tent to show how the technical challenges should really be done. Free from the frenzy of whipping, piping, and kneading, Mary and Paul tackle treacle tarts, rum babas, creme caramels, hand-raised pies, and Paul's infamous eight-strand plaited loaf. Going through every step of the first five technical recipes of the season, they show exactly how to avoid the mistakes some of the bakers made.
