The course will be from 9am until 3pm and will include breakfast, lunch and refreshments during the day, full course notes and recipes, a proving basket, dough scraper, scoring knife and some of our 20 year old sourdough starter. Not to mention your very own baked creations to take home.

The course will be taught by Benedict Harding, baker and co-owner of Electric Bakery, during the day he will share over 15 years of professional sourdough baking experience, comic anecdotes and strive to answer all your bread queries.

In this one day course suited to both novice and experienced bakers we will cover

· Benefits of using stoneground flour and heritage grains in baking

· Mixing and fermenting a healthy dough
