Sourdough Bread Workshop

Get in touch with the microbial world. This workshop is your springboard into the world of sourdough and fermentation. The secret of sourdough bread baking is rising up and being shared with the world. This event is INTERACTIVE and INFORMATIVE. Through taste, touch, sight, smell and discussion we will explore the fascinating microbiological processes that turn simple ingredients (flour, water, salt) into delicious and nutritious breads. We will eat, talk and make naturally-risen breads using a wild sourdough culture and learn how to control, feed and proliferate our cultures and use them for more than breads. Participants go home with: - new knowledge and understanding of sourdough (starter, baking and results) - a piece of our 150+ year old Icelandic sourdough starter culture - a self-prepared dough to bake at home for everyone else - a full belly of tasty probiotic treats and drinks Please bring your curious taste buds and a small jar for your starter. Spots are limited due to busy hands and elbows using the space Bread baskets and other bacterial cultures for sale at the workshop. contact: [email protected]
