Sourdough Demo and Author Talk with Mara Ripani

Join Woodstock Flour for a sourdough bread demo and author talk with Mara Ripani.

Mara is the effervescent teacher and facilitator behind Village Dreaming permaculture farm and cooking school in Blampied, Vic. She is also the author of the The Baker’s Percentage.

The Baker's Percentage is a formula developed by bread bakers to allow them to create any bread. From a pure white sourdough to a hundred per cent whole wheat loaf. With it, bakers can scale up or down, from one loaf to many and can choose to speed up or slow down fermentation according to their daily commitments. It is completely liberating, yet most home bakers have never heard of it.

The Baker’s Percentage is unlike any other cookbook. There are no recipes. Instead, it encourages the reader to bake bread with confidence, according to their own needs and schedule. The book intertwines this bread-baking know-how with stories from the author.

Tea, coffee and a delicious morning tea (of course!) will be provided. Mara's book and Woodstock Flour's organic, stoneground flour will be available to purchase.
