For a long time, I did not think I was allowed to teach a sourdough class. I am completely self-taught, I have never taken a baking class in my life, and I had a voice in my head asking who I thought I was to teach anyone. Several dozen workshops later, I know that voice was wrong, and if you have the same one, it is wrong about you too.

This is part one of a three-part series on teaching sourdough workshops. Today I am walking you through my entire class, start to finish, exactly how I run it in my bakery right now. You will hear how I handle check-in, the timeline trick that keeps a two-day process clear in two and a half hours, why I bake first, how I build the whole middle of the class around starter questions, and what everyone actually takes home.
