Join Sonya Gammal for this popular sourdough bread baking workshop! Using organic hard wheat and spelt flours, you'll learn about the history of sourdough and its health benefits, how to create and maintain a starter, and be led step-by-step through the process of preparing and forming your dough ready to be baked off into a beautiful, hand-crafted artisanal — and very tasty — sourdough loaf. We'll start out by preparing and baking off 2 large loaves using the Dutch Oven method, that everyone will get to share at the end of class, accompanied by a bowl of warm butternut squash soup, and some cheese & nuts. While the loaves are baking in the oven, participants will prepare their own sourdough starter and dough, and everyone will leave with their own loaf to finish baking at home, all the recipes, and an unforgettable culinary experience!
