About

Ready to take your sourdough skills to the next level? This hands-on workshop is designed for bakers who already have some sourdough experience and want to deepen their knowledge. Over the course of the class, we’ll explore a range of techniques and dough styles that will expand your confidence and your repertoire.


Techniques Covered
  • Mixing, gluten development, shaping, scoring, and baking an artisan sourdough boule from start to finish
  • Working with high-hydration doughs for beautiful open-crumb loaves
  • Creating flavorful, whole-grain and seeded sourdough breads
  • Advanced shaping and baking techniques for consistent, professional results
  • How to make sourdough bagels and sourdough focaccia

What You’ll Take Home
  • A high-hydration sourdough loaf you’ve baked in class
  • A batch of sourdough bagels
  • Fresh sourdough focaccia
  • A multigrain seeded loaf to finish baking later in the week
  • A detailed recipe workbook covering all techniques and formulas

This class is capped at 12 students to ensure plenty of individual hands-on instruction. Snacks, refreshments, and lunch will be served, and you’ll leave not only with an armful of breads but also the confidence to continue exploring sourdough baking at home.
