Sourdough Bread For Beginners

For some, making bread is a religion - for others, it's a gluten-induced hell. What most don't know though, is that sourdough, with a slow fermentation, is the most digestible and least bloating of all breads. 

• Create and maintain a starter

• Make a sourdough loaf with the stretch-and-fold method

• Be taught and then practice creating a structure on sourdough ready for proving

• Observe and discuss the cooking preparation and methods

• Take your prepared sourdough home to prove overnight in a lovely cane banneton (provided within the class cost) for you to bake and enjoy fresh the following day from your own oven

• Be given full written instructions to re-create sourdough again & again

• Take home an active starter to ensure a good basis for your next loaves

• Enjoy tasting some freshly baked sourdough with homemade jam, butter, and a cuppa.

All lessons include: 

• Basic knife skills (where appropriate)

• Theory

• Demonstration

• Hands on experience

• One to one time with your tutor
