Hands-on Class

Sourdough Beyond Bread Baking

with Sarah Owens


Frequent refreshments to a sourdough culture are necessary to keep it low in acidity and strong in bread baking performance, but this can result in an unwieldy amount of excess starter over time. In this two day course, you will learn to incorporate sourdough starter into delicious and often seasonal, whole grain baked goods that boast unique flavors and increased digestibility. Together we will prepare recipes using sourdough to fully ferment chiffon cakes, pancakes, waffles, muffins, cookies, and crackers. We will also batch scones and granola that use sourdough starter simply as an ingredient and a clever way to avoid waste. Discussion will revolve around the biochemistry of sourdough starter and its impacts on other leavening agents such as baking powder and baking soda, and what adjustments can be made to adapt classic non-laminated pastries to incorporate flour fermentation.
