The Good Loaf - Sourdough Bread COVID-19 Credit Note

The Good Loaf hands-on technique workshop will help you to understand what it is about sourdough that makes it tastier, more digestible and a thoroughly rewarding ‘hobby’ to master.

In this ‘now’ society where things are immediate, a return to mastering a skill that takes time, understanding and attention, results in an achievement that is immensely satisfying. Having said it takes time, the ‘time’ doesn’t include your constant undivided attention.

The fascinating world of flour, water and air combining to create an edible leavened bread for the most, happens without you. A few minutes mixing, stretching and shaping allows you a moment to relate to and revere what you are creating and the rest you can leave up to nature.

The smell of your loaf cooking, the crack of the crust as it’s cut and the pleasant slightly sour, chewy crumb as you take a bite will easily convince you this bread is THE ONE.
