BAKING with SOURDOUGH STARTER
“Sourdough starter needs feeding, this process creates a bi-product called
discard that is often thrown out which I find such a waste. In this class,
I really wanted to focus not only on teaching you how to make a classic
sourdough bread but also using that discard to create recipes you’re more
apt to incorporate into your everyday menu planning like pancakes, waffles,
pizza and biscuits – see you in the kitchen!” Chef Vincent
