Our friend and collaborator Alicia of Redwood Bakery is coming to make us some \*real\* donuts (yes, raised and fried!), and we’ll be offering some fun drinks to go with them. If you’ve been missing those housemade almond milk mochas and lattes from the coffee shop, I can’t think of a better way to enjoy one than with a super special treat. PRE-ORDERS ARE HIGHLY RECOMMENDED — we will have very few extras available on the day of the event, so please get your order in by Friday at 5pm.

This is your opportunity to get hands-on with gluten-free sourdough baking! We will condense all of the steps of our 3-day sourdough making process into an action-packed 2.5 hours that will end with the chance to enjoy some sourdough baguettes we bake during the workshop! Our sourdough is made with a small number of simple ingredients, so learning to turn out a delicious and satisfying loaf is a lot about the process. We will cover important topics like - caring for starter - recognizing when starter and leaven are peaking - the importance of hydration in GF baking - how to know your loaf has proofed long enough and is ready to bake - shaping and scoring techniques - how to create the oven conditions necessary for a nice open crumb and crispy crust - …and more! Workshop generally takes approximately 2.5 hours, but may run as long as 3 hours. Each workshop is limited to 8 participants. There are 4 work stations inside our kitchen, and 4 on our patio. All participants will complete the same activities, and will spend some time inside and some outside. If you would like an opportunity to sit down during some parts of the workshop, we suggest choosing an outdoor workstation. At the end of the workshop, you will leave with: - **one or more shaped loaves of sourdough** that will be ready for you to cold proof overnight and bake the following day at your home, and - **a ‘kit’ of pre-measured ingredients (including starter) and recipe** that will allow you to make another 3lbs of dough by recreating the full process at home, at your leisure, and - **confidence** that you, too, can make beautiful and delicious GF sourdough bread! The loaves and baguettes we will make during this workshop are gluten-free, vegan, nut-free and gum-free. Registration closed --- Thank you for being such an amazing community.
