Sourdough is the rage right now both for its taste but also for its health benefits. Join me in a four hour workshop where you’ll learn all about making sourdough bread! I'll teach you how to make a loaf of sourdough, feed and maintain a sourdough starter, explain fermentation basics, and show you how to shape the dough. We'll cover the entire process, from start to finish.

You'll learn: My super simple sourdough method which requires only 20 minutes of hands on time from start to finish, including the baking! ● Sourdough starter basics ● Understand what a sourdough starter is and how to maintain it ● Fermentation and Proofing: Discover how these processes improve your bread's texture and flavor ● Shaping and Scoring: See how to shape boule(round loaf) and score it for your desired look ● Dough Strengthening: Learn tips to build dough tension during bulk fermentation. You will take home: dough in a tea towel and colander to bake the next day ● an Aliquot jar (dough clock) ● a printed workbook with the recipe and instructions ● a container of sourdough starter (that is 230+ years old from San Francisco) ● an online digital course with lessons and video tutorials via email ● an option to join Chillspice’s Beginner’s Sourdough Workshop private Facebook group ● And finally the knowledge to bake sourdough all on your own over and over again which is priceless! I can’t wait to see you there. It’s going to be a blast!
