~~~
Using just three simple ingredients – flour, water, and salt – you can create flavourful and nourishing sourdough bread in your own kitchen. Over the years, I’ve developed recipes to suit a modern lifestyle, balancing traditional techniques with flexibility for busy schedules.
Sourdough bread is naturally fermented, a process that not only enhances flavour but also improves the digestibility of starch and gluten, and increases nutrient bioavailability.
What you’ll learn in this demonstration-style workshop:
- How to prepare and maintain a healthy sourdough starter – the key to successful baking
- How to make my Overnight Rustic Sourdough – a hand-shaped, free-form loaf (boule or batard)
- Tips for flour blends, flavourful additions like seeds, dried fruit, spices, and roasted vegetables
- Practical timelines to fit sourdough baking around your schedule – including workdays and weekends
- A discussion on choosing quality flours and sourcing NZ-grown grains for bread making
- You’ll also enjoy food samples on the night and take home a detailed recipe folder
Date: Wednesday 22nd April 2026 (new date)
Time: 6.30 – 8.45 pm
Location: Broccoli Row Café, 121 Collingwood Street, Nelson – plenty of off-street parking
Bring: A pen for note-taking and a small jar (300–400 ml) to collect some sourdough starter.
