Sourdough 101

Nothing beats the flavor and chewy texture of warm sourdough bread, and nothing parallels the aroma of a fresh baked loaf right from your oven. In this class, you’ll learn how to make rustic sourdough bread using a homemade sourdough starter from Chef Baylor Pascall, previously Sous Chef Bakery Nouveau, and currently a Pastry culinary instructor at Seattle Culinary Academy. In this workshop, you can look forward to a fun, hands-on session going over everything necessary to make your own starter and how to mix, portion, shape and bake the perfect sourdough. After enjoying your own wonderfully crisp and flavorful loaves, you’ll have newfound confidence to bake your own sourdough bread at home.  You’ll also get to take home a sourdough starter to feed, a loaf of bread baked ready to share, and a dough you made shaped ready to bake the next day!

You’ll make a croque-monsieur sandwich to enjoy for lunch with a cold beer or glass of wine, along with a few other sourdough surprises.
