Originally from Germany, Monika baked sourdough bread with her Mum since she was four years old.
In this baking class, Monika will share her knowledge and will introduce you to the foundational principles and hands-on practices of sourdough bread making. Each of the steps in the process will be demonstrated and explained in detail. You will learn how to create your own sourdough starter from scratch and how to feed it, different techniques how to improve dough structure after mixing and how ingredients and temperature will influence the process. Under guidance, you will create your own sourdough bread and put your new skills into practice with plenty of opportunity to ask questions along the way.
Above all, this class will make you feel comfortable and supported, so you can confidently create your own beautiful loaves at home.
