Ready to take your sourdough skills to the next level? This hands-on workshop taught by Dr. Mikailah Grover, ND, is designed for those who have completed our introductory class (or have basic sourdough experience) and want to dive deeper into technique.
We’ll focus on dough development, including proper mixing, stretch-and-fold methods, fermentation timing, and troubleshooting common challenges.
