Baking Bread with Abagail – Gluten Free Sour Dough Bread

Description

Gluten-free sourdough for beginners!

An in-depth look at taking the beloved bread up a step to meet your dietary needs.

Come and learn all about gluten-free sourdough starters, the different gluten-free flours, possible additions and inclusions as well as different approaches to gluten-free baking and fermentation.

Please come ready to learn with an apron and a pen for taking notes.

You will be sent home with a bowl containing your dough made in class, a container with a freshly fed starter to use and maintain at home and a container of the gluten substitute used in class.

Important Information: As this class is held in a local high school kitchen, even though the bread will be gluten-free, it is not a gluten-free facility. As such, we don’t recommend you try it in class if you are celiac or gluten intolerant. The idea of the class is for you to gain the knowledge for you to make sourdough in your own gluten-free kitchen!
