Join us at Waterman House Cookery School for an evening of sourdough bread making.
In this class expert baker Ciaran from Hundredth Monkey Bakery will guide you through the tips and techniques to make great-tasting sourdough bread in your own home.
In this class, we will make:
Ciaran’s class will look at sourdough through the lens of three different breads; bagels, a country loaf, and ciabatta. You’ll get to work with a stiff, a wet, and a high hydration dough respectively, which will not only aid you in being able to bake a variety of breads but also set parameters for you to help flag any issues or variations when you are making your bread at home, helping you fix things in real-time.
You’ll also learn skills like bassinage, stretch & fold, dough shaping and scoring as well as how to plan a schedule around your lifestyle, maximizing the downtime to make the joy of baking as every day as you want it to be.
The class will use stand mixers but the theory will translate to hand mixing. Ciarán will cover the differences and limitations at each stage.
We offer a range of day and evening cooking classes for all ages and abilities. Each class will teach you the skills they needed to make delicious dishes that can be prepared quickly or in advance to be enjoyed with family and friends at home.
Our classes are informal and relaxed, but well structured and feature a mix of demonstration and hands-on cooking. At the end of most classes you will sit down together to enjoy the food that has been cooked along with a glass of wine, coffee or tea.
Bread in some form has existed in almost every culture since we were able to create fire. With the correct knowledge and recipes, bread-making is a wonderfully rewarding past-time.
You’ll be learning how to make and bake a variety of traditional griddle breads.
This lesson will see you make a range of breads including using a yeast starter that gives sourdough tones to your bread and by the end of the day you will have mastered hand crafted loaves, focaccia and enriched sweet treats. Understanding Gluten and how to keep you bread consistent is a big focus
The five hour workshop includes demonstrations, instructions and guidance on how to make, shape and bake a selection of British breads.
This spring, squash’s resident baker, julie filain is running monthly sourdough bread-making workshops where we will make our very own sourdough focaccia!
