Sourdough Bakers Community

Course Description

This “course” has more of a club format; each member will ideally have some experience with sourdough bread baking and will add their own experiences to the discussions and hands-on activities. Topics that are beyond the basics of sourdough baking will be introduced according to the members’ interest. Advanced methods and types of bread, inclusions, sweet breads, open baking, scoring, and how to use up sourdough discard are examples.
