Event description
Join us for a comprehensive hands-on workshop all about cultivating a sourdough culture and using it to bake bread and other goodies. Your instructor Mee Cheng will cover:
- The sourdough process
- Making your own starter from scratch
- Using an alternative starter to make sourdough
- Using different flours to make sourdough
- How to use extra starter to make zero-waste crackers and flatbreads
You will also get to sample sourdough bread with delicious homemade fermented salsa, fire cider chutney, honey, infused olive oil and cultured butter.
You will leave the workshop with some of Mee Cheng's amazing sourdough culture, the knowledge to make your own at home, and a belly full of delicious warm bread and preserves!
All equipment and materials are provided, but please bring one 250 ml jar so you can carry your starter home with you.
All this is set in the grounds of Perth City Farm, a non-profit community environmental centre that provides space and opportunities to cultivate connection, education, and sustainability.
The workshop space is connected to our lush food gardens, and we'll make use of them as much as possible during the workshop.
