Class Description
Sourdough bread has been around for hundreds of years. Widely favoured amongst many due to its ability to digest easier within the body and for its tangy flavour and wholesome appearance.
Whilst the supermarkets have brought sourdough to our shelves, the amount of care and attention needed is sometimes lost in the mass production of sourdough which takes great care and most of all time.
Matt has been baking and teaching for many years and runs a Most bakery in Altrincham, he is full of technical know how about how to achieve great sourdough results.
In this easy class for sourdough beginners, we teach you:
- How to make a starter from the beginning, how to take care of it and feed and nurture it using a variety of readily available ingredients.
- You will also be shown how to shape the dough to achieve the best looking loaves and simple cutting effects to make those enviable patterns so that your bread has that professional appearance.
- We will also be discussing and using many different types of grain and show you how easy it is to make a super fast version of sourdough for an every day supply of better bread.
- You’ll take home a starter, a sourdough loaf part made by you as well as your own dough to cook at home.
What’s included:
- Lunch will be provided in the way of sourdough bread along with meats and cheeses and coffee on arrival
- You’ll take home a starter, a sourdough loaf part made by you as well as your own dough to cook at home.
- We have all the equipment you need but please bring or buy a banneton
- Glass of fizz, beer or soft drink on arrival. We have a great bar with some amazing wines, beers, a range of spirits, soft drinks and cocktails to enjoy – additional beverages can be purchased using cash or card.

Class Description
In recent years, discoveries from leading scientific researchers have found that the state of our gut bacteria could lead to better mood, immunity and skin. During the class you will learn how to get started with fermenting at home. You’ll drink Kombucha on arrival which is packed with probiotics, fundamental in helping to balance the gut microbiome.
What you will make – please bring 3 preserving jars or pre order from us £5 each.
- Kimchi
- Sauerkraut
- Kimchi fried rice
- Wholemeal momos with fermented soy beans and turmeric sauerkraut
Kimchi and Sauerkraut are great side dishes which can be eaten with any meal and are traditionally made by fermenting cabbage but many other vegetables can be used. Korean kimchi is hot and spicy whilst sauerkraut has a distinctive sour flavour – the result of lactic acid formed when the bacteria ferment the sugars in the cabbage leaves.
What’s included
Probiotic drink on arrival and the food you make – please bring three or more glass preserving jars, at least 500ml or pre order from us at £5 each. The class will last 2.5 to 3 hours depending on number of guests. You will eat your dishes on the night and take home your jars of fermented Sauerkraut and Kimchi.
