Sourdough for Beginners

Sourdough for Beginners Join Amber Eisler, Director of the King Arthur Baking School, in this comprehensive On-Demand baking class designed to demystify sourdough. Whether you're new to sourdough or looking to refine your skills, Amber will guide you step by step through the process of creating and baking with sourdough. Start by meeting your instructor and learning King Arthur’s tried-and-true method for making and maintaining a sourdough starter from scratch. Amber will answer common sourdough questions and share tips for success. Then, dive into hands-on baking as you mix, shape, and top a soft and flavorful sourdough focaccia. But the learning doesn’t stop there! You’ll also explore a variety of sourdough recipes, including a rich and tender sandwich bread, a classic naturally leavened sourdough with a mild tang, and a wholesome whole wheat loaf. By the end of the class, you’ll have the skills and confidence to create beautiful sourdough bakes in your own kitchen. On-Demand classes can be taken at any time, and can be re-watched over and over again, letting you learn at your own pace. Looking for more?
