Easy Peasy Sourdough Ciabatta
Join Lena Halberstadt, our local master tomato grower and sourdough baker, as she shows you the simplest sourdough you’ll ever bake. It doesn’t require strenuous kneading, complicated shaping or long oven preheating. It bakes in 20 minutes and your active involvement with this dough is under 30 minutes in total. And yet you get delicious bread with airy open crumb and rustic crust every time. And it’s absolutely perfect for tomato sandwiches: large holes capture all the good stuff, while the crispy chewy crust traps it all inside. It’s my go-to summer bake!
The class will feature:
- tasting fresh ciabatta with my tomatoes
- snacking on my favorite discard dish (crepes with various fillings)
- observing the demo mixing and shaping of ciabatta
- demo of sourdough starter handling and troubleshooting
- a demo bake of a batch of ciabatta
- a printout of the master recipe with notes on starter approach and discard recipes
- you get to take home some freshly baked ciabatta and enough sourdough starter to make this dough at home right away.
