Sarah Owens, the founder and baker of BK17 Bakery and the author of the James Beard Foundation-nominated book, \”Sourdough: Rustic Recipes for Fermented Breads, Sweets, Savories, and More,\” will be teaching a hands-on class about the basics of the mysterious medium of sourdough, a natural leavening. Students will learn the process from start to finish: from maintaining a starter, to mixing, shaping, scoring, and baking in the home kitchen. Students will leave with dough to bake at home, some starter, and a few basic recipes. Snacks and wine will be provided.
All proceeds of this class will be donated to Just Food.
All class sales are final. Students must cancel at least 72 hours before the scheduled class to receive a Haven’s Kitchen credit of the full purchase value.
