Introduction to Sourdough

Sourdough is the bread of the moment! It is bread that has been made for centuries with just flour, water, salt and time.

But what is a starter? How do you manage it? How can I fit it in around a busy life? Why is sourdough better for me? Just some of the questions that will all be answered on this course.

I will take you through ingredients, processes and shaping techniques. We will make about 5 different breads, have morning tea, a delicious lunch, and you’ll have all the recipes, a pot of my starter and a big bag of delicious bread, that you have made yourself, to take home.

"Thank you Liz for an amazing day in your new bakery space and for sharing all your bread knowledge and wisdom. I learnt so much about sourdough. I strongly recommend one of her classes – not only is she a superb teacher and host, you will walk away with fresh bread, recipes and top insider tips…"

“Learning with Liz makes you want to go home and start kneading straight away! She makes learning how to make bread fun and informative. You really get individual attention and she breaks down the process into easy to understand steps. We got to take our breads home much to the delight of a very appreciative husband, and I’ve now signed up to another of Liz’s classes. I can’t wait.”

“Thank you for a wonderful Introduction to Bread Making course. Your new bread school is a wonderful space, welcoming and relaxed. Liz shared her vast knowledge of bread making from the ‘chemistry’ through to tips and tricks to guarantee great bread. We made a number of delicious breads and as soon as I have mastered the basics, I’ll be back for more.”
