ON SALE! Once you have a sourdough starter or culture, the possibilities are endless! In this virtual class, learn how to use your starter to produce a wide variety of baked goods, including pizza, New York Bagels, fruit and nut loaves, focaccia, and cinnamon rolls. Practice shaping, scoring and all the folds with baguettes, batards, and artistically scored boulés. Master timing and maintaining your starter. In addition, you’ll have a forum for addressing your sourdough questions and troubleshooting bread fails, handling higher hydration, and weather changes.
Advanced Sourdough Baking is a weekly series of 8 live virtual classes, meeting on Friday evenings March 12th - April 30th from 6:00-7:45pm Eastern Standard Time. It’s best that you commit to attending each class, however, all classes will be recorded for your convenience, and Chef Laura is available for ongoing personal baking coaching!
For late joiners, we’re slashing the total course price to $119. You’ll still get access to recordings and materials from the sessions you missed.
And, for those interested in just one or two topics, you can “drop in” for $29 per session.
