Penny Olive Sourdough offer a FULL DAY hands-on sourdough baking classes twice a month on a Sunday.
Small groups up to six can also be catered for by request. Please email hello@pennyolive.com.au to discuss your needs.
The classes provide the necessary knowledge and skill required to create and maintain a starter culture, demonstration and instruction of hand mixing and shaping dough and advice on how to get the best results in your domestic oven. Perfect for those looking to bake bread weekly at home. You will take home a jar of starter and two loaves of your own hand mixed, shaped and baked bread.
Following his class, Ian Kercher kindly wrote, “I found the Sourdough Class was fantastic. I learned a lot about how to make & maintain a starter to provide the basis to making sourdough bread. The instructors Penny & Andrew were great, making the whole experience very worthwhile & enjoyable. Morning tea, lunch, & afternoon tea was awesome & the breaks enabled the group to discuss & obtain more info & tricks while the bread dough we had prepared was proving. Not long after lunch the class was able to shape the dough, score the top of the dough with our own artistic style then bake the bread. The facilities are excellent & situated in a very beautiful area. Well done Penny & Andrew. Regards, Ian Kercher”.
Classes run from 9.15am until 4.30pm and cost $195 pp inc GST (maximum 6 participants).
