This is a technique that you will learn during the Classic Sourdough Workshop. It is called Slap and Fold or Stretch and Fold. It develops the gluten in the dough and helps to ensure that you get a great rise on your baked loaf.

Our next Classic Workshop in Samford is on July 18th, and you will make a dough just like these participants did.

You asked and we listened!

We will be holding our first 𝗧𝗮𝗻𝗻𝘂𝗺 𝗦𝗮𝗻𝗱𝘀 𝗖𝗹𝗮𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗰 𝗦𝗼𝘂𝗿𝗱𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵 𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗸𝘀𝗵𝗼𝗽
on June 7th at the CWA Hall on Steel Street.

You can learn how to look after and maintain a healthy, active starter and make a classic sourdough dough during the workshop.

Take a starter and your prepared dough home and continue your sourdough journey in your own kitchen!

Tim will take you through the steps so you will leave the workshop with the knowledge and the confidence to never buy bread again!

Are you gluten-free and tired of spending $14 a loaf for good gf bread?

If you want to learn to make your own, we have calculated it will cost about half that per loaf you make at home using our recipe. Half the cost and zero chemicals.

Our Gluten-Free Sourdough workshop will be held at Koorawatha Homestead Motel on June 14th.

You will learn how to take care of your starter, and you will make a dough to take home and bake.

Join us and never look back!

This just in from one of our participants on a Gluten-free workshop:

Good morning!
I keep finding more GF sourdough discard recipes online...with varying success!!!
The Hot Cross Buns were a total disaster- I could have used them as cannonballs 🤣 but the Rock cakes are delicious!
This week's bread has added linseed ( I was a bit too heavy-handed on the seeds but we live and learn).
Continuing thanks, for opening up the GF sourdough gate for me!
Regards
Jane

Makes us do our happy dance 🤣

We are delivering a Gluten-Free sourdough bread workshop on Sunday, June 14th!
It will be our first in Bororen, and we can't wait.

We have delivered this session to over 190 people and we just love watching their faces when they taste the loaf that is baked during the session.
