Join Owen Petersen, former head baker and owner of Prairie Mill Bread, for his popular Sourdough Basics class—the perfect starting point for your own sourdough journey. Owen will guide you through each step of the process, from feeding your starter to baking a beautiful loaf in a Dutch oven. You’ll mix and shape your own dough during class, with time between folds to learn and enjoy Kathryn’s sourdough panzanella and oven-roasted tomato soup. Owen will demonstrate baking with loaves he’s prepared in advance, served warm with freshly made herb butter and a comforting bowl of our homemade soup. You’ll also learn how to make sourdough crackers using starter discard, and head home with a jar of Owen’s starter and a shaped loaf ready to bake the next day. Please note: our tomato soup is made with chicken stock but can be adapted for vegetarians with advance notice.
