There is nothing quite like the sound of a golden, blistered sourdough loaf “singing” as it comes out of the oven — yet for many home bakers, getting there can feel like a mystery.
Join Tomiwa, artisan baker and founder of a Leicestershire micro-bakery, for a relaxed, hands-on sourdough workshop designed to take you beyond trial and error and into confident, bakery-quality baking.
Over 4 immersive hours, you’ll work with real dough, learn how to read fermentation properly, and discover professional techniques adapted specifically for the home kitchen.
This isn't a "watch and learn" demo. You’ll be at the bench, getting your hands floury and learning the tactile skills that make a perfect loaf.
𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐭𝐨 𝐄𝐱𝐩𝐞𝐜𝐭:
*A fully hands-on, small-group workshop (no demos or lectures)
*Professional sourdough techniques simplified for home baking
* Clear troubleshooting so you understand the why, not just the steps
*A calm, mindful afternoon of baking, learning and tasting
𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭’𝐬 𝐈𝐧𝐜𝐥𝐮𝐝𝐞𝐝:
*A jar of mature sourdough starter (from the micro-bakery)
* Your own reusable banneton (proofing basket)
* A printed baker’s handbook
* Your first sourdough loaf, shaped by you and ready to bake at home
* A tasting of fresh artisan sourdough bakes
𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐕𝐞𝐧𝐮𝐞:
The workshop takes place at Ullesthorpe Village Hall, a newly refurbished, modern space with a fully fitted modern kitchen, set in the heart of the beautiful village of Ullesthorpe. While the hall itself is cosy and practical, the surrounding village provides a calm and inspiring setting for a slow, hands-on baking experience.
