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.

What to bring?

Sourdough Pizza Crust

Sourdough Pizza Crust at our May Potluck.

Anything from Nourishing Traditions, the Healthy 4 Life booklet or Recipes of the Week would be wonderful.  A simple homemade meal made from scratch using natural fats is always a great contribution.

Some examples include: a roasted chicken or other meat, meat and vegetable casserole, a dish made with soaked grains, soup using homemade bone broth, pastured egg quiche or other egg dish, organic salad with homemade dressing, steamed or roasted vegetables with butter or cream sauce, fermented vegetables, fresh or cooked fruit with raw whipped cream.  If you come to the potlucks regularly, please try to bring a dish from a different category every so often.

Bring enough to share with everyone and be sure to include some traditional fats!

Children and guests welcome.  Please bring serving utensils for your dish.  Thanks!

Eugene, OR 97405

Description:

Learn how to hand-craft sourdough bread that has been fermented for forty-two hours. This bread is not overly sour and has a light and airy texture. This is a no-knead technique that anyone can do at home to produce beautiful artisan bread.

Min Kim
has been a domestic engineer for the past twenty-two years.  Upon learning about traditional foods and the Weston A. Price Foundation five years ago, she pledged to her family that food would taste better than what they were used to.  This led her to learn and perfect a sourdough bread technique that not only is nourishing and kind to the body, but also is flavorful without being overly sour, and has a light and airy texture.  She now provides real sourdough bread to local families and also teaches classes on how to make this bread at home.
