Sourdough Pizza and Focaccia Class

Get hands-on with Italian bread making at this pizza and focaccia workshop with Baked@number17, and discover how satisfying it is to make two classics entirely from scratch. You'll learn to mix, develop, and shape a yeasted dough from the ground up – no shortcuts, no rolling pins. Pizza dough gets shaped rigorously by hand the way it should be, then topped and baked to perfection in a regular home oven, so you know the techniques will actually work in your own kitchen. If you fancy going a step further, there'll be Italian sourdough starter (lievito madre) on hand for anyone who wants to try their hand at sourdough pizza too. Then it's on to focaccia – that deeply satisfying, dimpled bread that's soft and pillowy inside with a proper crunchy bottom. You'll learn exactly how to get that texture right, again using nothing more than a regular oven. It's a relaxed, fun afternoon of making and eating, and you'll leave with the skills to pull off both whenever the mood strikes.
