There’s something magical about sourdough—the way a simple mix of flour, water, and time can turn into a loaf that’s warm, crusty, and full of life. In this beginner-friendly class, we’ll take the mystery out of sourdough and put the joy back into your kitchen. You’ll learn the tools of the trade, follow an easy recipe step by step, and discover the secrets to keeping your starter happy and thriving. Best of all, you’ll take home your own lively sourdough starter, a fermenting loaf ready to bake the next day, and a golden loaf fresh from the oven.

For those who want to set up their own home bread lab, optional starter kits ($75) will be available, packed with everything you need: a banneton, bowl with cover, scale, thermometer, starter jar, tea towel, dough scraper, spatula, and dough scorer.

Come ready to roll up your sleeves, breathe in the aroma of fresh bread, and fall in love with the timeless craft of sourdough. Content is the same for each session. *While sourdough does contain gluten, the fermentation process often makes it easier to digest for those who are gluten-sensitive (though it’s still not recommended for those with celiac disease).
