Sourdough Workshops

The workshops will begin with a brief discussion of levain and the benefits of a long fermentation. We will talk about techniques and maintenance for your sourdough starters with a brief demonstration on how to “feed” this living culture. Each participant will get a batch of dough, transforming it through a series of stretches and folds, eventually leading to what will become your own sourdough loaf. We will shape the loaves together in class, and you will bake them later that day (in your own home). Fresh sourdough starters will be provided in jars for each participant to TAKE HOME along with their shaped loaf.

Due to limited seating these are register in advance events. 

Participants are asked to bring in a thin kitchen/tea towel and a deep bowl or colander approximately 8 inches in diameter to transport your shaped dough home. Alternatively, participants may purchase a proofing basket and muslin cloth locally or online. 

Minimum age is 14 years unless individual has previous baking experience.
