Introduction to Sourdough: The Big Rise
Join us for a one-hour workshop on the introduction to sourdough! In this class, we'll give a presentation that walks you through the basics - what sourdough is, how it works, and why it’s so special. It’s simple, engaging, and perfect for curious beginners.
Plus: a tasty twist! You will get fresh, homemade sourdough bread for hands-on learning - your group will get to see, touch, and smell real examples while we talk through what makes a great loaf. You will also get to see the ideal baking equipment, so you can see the tools used to create the perfect sourdough. It’s educational and fun!
Presented by: Wild Rise Productions
