Join us for a fun and informative day of bread baking at our Cookery School. This sourdough course will take you on a journey through the basics of bread baking, including understanding the sourdough starter, making the dough, and baking the perfect loaf.
Led by Alexander, the Micro-baker from Acre Bakery, this course will teach you the secrets to creating delicious, crusty sourdough bread using only three ingredients - Wildfarmed flour, water, and salt. Alexander will guide you through the process of making your own sourdough starter from scratch, and show you how to use it to create a variety of breads.
During the course, you will have the opportunity to work with high-quality ingredients and learn how to create a range of breads, from classic sourdough loaves to sweet and savoury breads. You will also learn how to shape your dough and bake it to perfection in our newly handcrafted wood-fired oven.
Our course includes all ingredients, refreshments, and a light lunch, so all you need to bring is your enthusiasm and a willingness to learn. By the end of the day, you will have gained the skills and knowledge to create delicious, crusty sourdough bread in your own kitchen.
We are based in the heart of Suffolk, in a picturesque setting at Kenton Hall Estate. The estate boasts a wedding venue, glamping site and 180 Hectare mixed arable and livestock farm. The school was built in a converted cow byre which also houses a butcher with smokehouse and curing facilities as well as a commercial kitchen. The cookery school was opened in 2014, it has recently been refurbished in 2023 and is now a Miele partnership cookery school.
The kitchen is fully equipped with dedicated work stations for up to 12 people. There is a chef tutor station with camera and screens in the kitchen for demonstrations. When the school was designed we wanted students to feel welcome and at home, but also experience the professional feel of a highly performing kitchen.
The school offers a relaxed, informal setting where people of all abilities can come and learn, eat and make some great memories. We have partnered with some of the industries top brands including Kenwood and Oxo, you will be sure to only use the best in equipment on your course with us.
