Learn the essentials of maintaining a healthy sourdough starter in this beginner-friendly class with Jeff Halfhide. You’ll discover how to feed and care for your starter, properly measure ingredients, manage sourdough discard, and troubleshoot common issues. Jeff will share practical tips for keeping your starter active and ready for baking. Students will take home a mature sourdough starter, a starter jar, and a helpful resource guide. Enjoy samples of sourdough bread with accompaniments and learn how to transform discard into delicious sourdough pancakes. Please note: this class focuses on starter care, not bread baking.
