e5 Bakehouse has been teaching the science behind baking sourdough bread and inspiring new bakers from around the world for years. This class is designed for those who have already taken our Sourdough Bread Class or are confident home bakers looking to further their skills and knowledge of sourdough. Following on from our original bread class, the Advanced Sourdough class offers you the opportunity to consider in depth various aspects of sourdough baking. During this class you’ll learn the secret to making our popular Hackney Wild loaf, a high hydration 100% heritage stoneground wholemeal loaf and learn how to shape baguettes.
Details
This class is tailored for people already having some experience in baking sourdough bread and who are showing an interest in understanding where wheat comes from and how it's grown, you'll learn more about the different varieties and how soil health and diversity is so important. Your teacher will explain how to use bakers percentage when home baking and experimenting to give you the right tools to continue your baking journey at home.
You'll be going home with an e5 tote bag, scraper, 3 types of bread and a wicker basket to proof your future bread in.
