June 8: Potluck & Sourdough Presentation

June 8: Potluck & Sourdough Presentation

Friday June 8th, 2018
Starting at 6:00 PM

Sourdough Presentation:

Renea, a local Eugene Chapter participant and sourdough enthusiast, will be speaking on sourdough basics and how to get friendly with your starter, as well as einkorn wheat, sourdough sandwich breads, refrigerator starter vs countertop, and how much you don’t need to knead your dough.

She has been baking bread for a couple decades, and always had a taste for sourdough, but more recently began working with sourdough on the regular, when she found the Wise Traditions diet in 2015, and realized the significance of properly preparing grains.

We will have SCOBY starters for both drinks available for a donation of any amount to the Weston A. Price Foundation!  Please bring your own jar to take one home.
