Sourdough Enthusiasts!

£130.00

If you’re already a home bread-baker, or you really want to get involved with the artisan side of bread baking, this workshop will guide you into the world of slow fermentation and sourdough baking. While you create 3 different types of dough, we explain some of the science behind the sourdough method, and give you a grounding in how to best use sourdough cultures with spelt, rye and wheat flours.

We teach you what qualities in your flour to look for that best suits sourdough dough development , what it is that gives life to the sourdough cultures – and what sustains them and keeps them healthy.

YOU WILL MAKE, BAKE AND TAKE HOME:

Prepare 3 doughs with both wheat and rye sourdough cultures:

  • Campagne/Alsace with spelt: hand moulded baton
  • Wheat Sourdough: 2 small loaves
  • Rye Sourdough: banneton oval and round – coffee bean and volcanic banneton

LUNCH INCLUDED: there is also a break for coffee and baked chocolate fondants straight from the oven for a boost in the afternoon!

FULL DAY CLASS: 10:30 a.m to 4.30 p.m. (may end a little later)

YOUR TEACHER: Justin Gourlay set up the Open Bakery in Brighton in 2010. He has been teaching classes since 2014; and Csaba Bozo, our Head Baker working with us since 2015

Under 16’s need to have a place booked and accompanied with a paying adult.
