Sourdough Bread in shape of a pumpkin
Welcome to the art of sourdough baking with Helen from Honey Bear Breads! Helen is a local Simsbury resident and a licensed cottage home baker who is obsessed with sourdough.
In this class, you will learn the basics of making sourdough bread including:
- How to care for and maintain your sourdough starter 
- The unique fermentation process and health benefits of sourdough bread.
- Basic kneading, shaping and scoring techniques.
- How to bake your first artisan loaf. 
Helen will provide hands-on experience and students will actively participate in making their first loaf during our class. No previous experience required! This is a great class for beginners, or those who want more of a hands on teaching experience.
 
Each participant will leave with their own sourdough starter, a loaf to take home to bake, and my “beginners sourdough guide”. *Please bring a medium sized mixing bowl to mix your dough!
Teens (12+) are welcome but must have a paying guardian with them (teen and guardian both must register and pay).
