This class is meant for those wishing to take their bread making to the next level by incorporating healthy, sourdough breads into their lives. In this course we will discuss the sciences behind naturally leavened breads, starting and maintaining a starter and all the reasons why sourdough bread is just overall better for you. This class will actually be done in two parts. On Saturday we will mix and shape several sourdough loaves to be retarded overnight in our walk-in refrigerator. On Sunday, students are invited back between 3pm and 5 pm to score and bake their loaves. Lecture will take place throughout the night along with refreshments.
This class is intended for the intermediate bread baker and will be taught with the assumption that you have already made several loaves of bread already. Out of respect for the other students we ask that you only sign up if a basic foundation of bread making has been developed.
Class cost is $130 and includes two days of hands on lessons and lecture, lecture notes to take home, a proofing basket, Blacksmith’s Sourdough culture to perpetuate and a lifelong hobby to further develop skill and pleasure in.
The class will need a minimum of 8 students to run with a maximum capacity of 10 students. Please sign up in the shop to reserve your spot. Cash only.
