About this Event

Join trained chef and baking instructor Kristin “Baker Bettie” Hoffman for a weekend of sourdough bread baking at her brick-and-mortar baking school, Bettie's Chicago.

This intensive will dive deep into classic sourdough baking techniques while making various sourdough baked goods using both active starter and discard.

This intensive will be capped at 12 students. We emphasize individual hands-on time and each student will leave this workshop with a good understanding of a wide variety of sourdough baking techniques.

Refreshments and snacks will be served each day and all students will leave with the baked goods they prepared in class. Each student will also receive an in-depth recipe workbook of everything covered in this intensive.
