Dive into the art and science of sourdough breadmaking in this fully hands-on workshop. Each student will build and shape their own dough to take home and bake later, using Kim’s signature San Francisco sourdough starter provided in class. You’ll learn how to care for your starter, understand dough hydration and fermentation, and leave with the skills and confidence to continue baking long after class ends.
While dough is rising, enjoy fresh sourdough samples paired with our premium oils and vinegars. Guests will also receive 10% off in-store purchases during the event, plus automatic entry into a $20 Old World Olive Co. gift card raffle.
