Sourdough Bread 101: Learn the Essentials for Making Sourdough Bread @ Home

If you’ve ever wanted to learn how to make sourdough bread, now's the time! This fun, interactive, and hands-on class will give you the essential tips and techniques to successfully bake sourdough bread at home.

We will work on two loaves together during class, a small and a large loaf (which will be baked at home), and we will score and bake small classic white loaves in The Sourdough Spot's stone bread oven. Owner & baker Maegan Vaughan will perform lots of demonstrations and answer all of your burning questions throughout class, and you’ll get to learn every part of the making and baking process.

Bring your own mix-ins for your doughs (email with details to follow) and enjoy a complimentary bread bar while we hang out and get comfortable with sourdough in The Sourdough Spot's home base at Iron District in North Kansas City. Class will be on the deck at Iron District, lasting 2.5 hours. We will move indoors to a container if needed, due to weather.

You’ll learn how to care for your new sourdough starter and go home with your share of Bertha (The Sourdough Spot’s organic sourdough starter), as well as:

• Two dishwasher-safe, food-grade proofing baskets - 1 small, 1 large
• A razor for scoring
• Beginner recipes for small and large sourdough bread loaves + focaccia
• Sourdough starter care guide
• Small + large bread dough to bake at home
• A small, freshly baked classic white sourdough bread loaf

Whether you’re new to bread making or have been at it for a while, I’m excited to meet you and help simplify the process to get you confidently baking sourdough bread at home. See you at Iron District!
