I learnt a lot about making sour dough bread - of course, as that was what the course was about. But I didn't expect it to be so much fun. John is an excellent teacher and passionate about what he does. He also knows a lot about the science, which helped demystify the sourdough-culture process. At the end of the day we left with a good set of notes, our own leaven to feed until it is ready for us to use making bread at home, and a box of breads we had mad in the fantastic Scotch oven during the day.. We also had a delicious Red Beard lunch, and as many cups of excellent coffee (or other drinks) as we could wish for.
Altogether a great day, with a nice bunch of people.
I will "Dine out" on this experience for the rest of my life.
A day that will last a lifetime
YES, it was that good and I can't wait to bake my first loaf of truly sourdough bread at home.
JUST DO IT

We would recommend this workshop so highly!! My husband and I have wanted to make our own bread for so long, and the wealth of knowledge, experience, respect for local producers and passion for the craft was second to none! - Whit and Mark
