Discovering the Art of Making Sourdough Bread
Please join us for a three hour class to learn how to make sourdough bread from scratch.
Alain Marec, your instructor, is a French born food scientist and home baker who will teach you how to create a wonderful sourdough loaf of bread.
During the class, you will create your own bread and go through all the steps including: autolyse, mixing, window pane method to gauge gluten development, stretch and fold methods, divide and shape, finally scoring and baking your loaf.
You will also learn to feed and care for your very own sourdough starter (with its Birth certificate)
While the process is three days long, through “TV magic”, we will be able to explore and practice every step of the process.
Students will go home with:
A 1 lb. loaf of bread they will have personally decorated, scored and baked during the class.
A proofing dough to bake the next day.
A 5” banneton with a dough scraper bench knife and lame and plastic cover and a fresh starter to initiate their own sourdough journey,
A hand out of the presentation given in class and your instructor contact information for troubleshooting.
