Learn how to make artisan sourdough in your own kitchen with Yoke Mardewi in this hands-on live streaming class!

In this class, you will learn new techniques, high hydration or wet dough, hand shaping, bannetons and most importantly, have lots of fun accompanied by some delicious delights!

We will explore new ‘ancient’ grains such as Emmer, Khorasan (Kamut), Heirloom, Purple wheat, all unhybridised original grains, Australian organic/sustainably grown and stoneground and Semola and Manitoba.

Yoke will be covering different types of artisan sourdough, how to mix different types of flour, technical discussion on how to create the sourdough you desire (eg. hydration, scoring, bulk rise etc and how these affect your final loaf), as well a quick refresh on the 'no waste' method of keeping your starter and how to make a low FODMAP sourdough.

As Yoke demonstrates the artisan sourdough bread-making process, you can follow along making your own dough and taking notes so you can repeat the process as many times as you please. This class is a step up in the right direction to make sourdough loaves that taste better than bought ones but look as good as the ones sold at artisan bakeries anywhere!

Types of sourdough covered in this class:

• Pain au levain
• Light rye
• Khorasan and chia

At the end of the class, you will have handmade artisan sourdough ready to bake at home!

Suitable for beginners.
  Sourdough starter and comprehensive recipes and notes. All ingredients you need to make your own artisan sourdough bread will be included in your box.
  Just your basic kitchen supplies.
 

This Box and Live class is a great indoor activity idea for virtual team building activities at home.
