CANTERBURY | Art of Sourdough | Register Interest for 2025

Description

*Join my Events newsletter to be notified of upcoming workshops around New Zealand.

~~~

Using three simple ingredients – flour, water, and salt – combined with basic technique and timing, the most flavoursome and nutritious bread can be created in your own kitchen. For many years I have been preparing sourdough bread for my family and have specifically designed my recipes to fit around a modern lifestyle. This traditional technique of bread making slowly ferments the flour and grains to improve their flavour, while also enhancing starch and gluten digestibility and nutrient bioavailability.

In this demonstration-style cooking workshop you will learn:

• How to prepare and maintain a healthy sourdough starter – this is key to baking great bread (Please note, I won’t be demonstrating gluten-free bread at this particular workshop).
• Overnight Rustic Sourdough Bread – this is a free-form boule that is shaped by hand. I will demonstrate the preparation + shaping of the dough.
• Variations to use different flour combos, add seeds, dried fruit and spices + roasted vegetables.
• Where to source quality flour and NZ-grown grains for bread making.
• + Delicious food samples on the day & recipe folder to take home.

Date: Saturday 8th June 2024  *This workshop is now full. Register interest above for 2025 classes.

Time: 10.00 am – 12.15 pm

Location: Rangiora High School, Rangiora, North Canterbury – directions and a map to the food room will be sent the week before the workshop.

Bring a pen to take notes + a small jar (300-400ml) to take home some sourdough starter.

The fine print: Your online booking and payment confirm your place in the workshop – you don’t need to print a receipt. A reminder email and directions will be sent the week before the workshop. Please check the date carefully. Due to time constraints, unfortunately, I am unable to offer a refund if your plans change, however, I am happy for you to send a friend in your place.
