USDEC signed up for ATO Shenyang's U.S. Ingredients Bakery Training on Aug. 23-25 in Harbin. The ATO is collaborating with the Harbin New East Cuisine Training School to promote the use of high-quality U.S. baking ingredients to 60 students/future bakers. The event includes baking demos with U.S. ingredients and a final bakery product showcase. Chef Dong Han, Liaoning Vocational Technical College of Modern Service, will serve as the instructor for the demos. USDEC worked with Chef Han last year, who knows and appreciates the benefits of permeate in bakery products. Following the style of past ATO events, Chef Han will create recipes to highlight U.S. dairy permeate (as well as other non-dairy ingredients from the U.S.) in bakery applications. USDEC members are encouraged to donate permeate samples for this training program.
