Our 7 top tips to help you decide which sourdough course to book:
There are thousands of sourdough courses, and we have a list of schools that offer sourdough courses. What we suggest is that you make sure that the sourdough course is the right level for your experience and that you check the following:
- Reviews of the sourdough courses they have taught from previous students,
- Photos of the crumb structure of the bread that you will be baking, and don’t just look at the outside of the bread,
- Look at the follow up support for students to continue to learn after the course – such as the Sourdough Club membership we offer the Sourdough School Students.
- We also suggests that you check the credentials and qualifications of your teacher. A good teacher will welcome your questions, and share how long they have been baking and if they have any formal training or depth of experience. Many teachers are enthusiastic domestic bakers who whilst ,making lovely bread in their own kitchen they may not necessarily have the depth and breadth of experience to teach you what you need to know in your kitchen. This can be very frustrating, so do not be afraid to ask how their course recipes translate back to your flour, and to your environment. What really matters on a sourdough course is not the bread that you make o the day, it is that you can use what you have learned to apply to the bread that you make when you get home.
- Ask to see if they provide you with extra materials to support the course, such as books to go with the sourdough course, or sourdough course material such as baking schedules and helpful course materials.
- Check that as a venue that they have appropriate heath and safety in place to run a sourdough course, and their hygiene certificate, and their insurance covers you for any mishaps.
- We suggest that if you are traveling that you check your own insurance to ensure that if your sourdough course is canceled that you are covered
