If you’ve ever kept a “sourdough starter” at home, then you may have found yourself wondering just what to do with the excess “discard” that comes from regular feeding. We’re here to help you get creative, and get the same great sourdough benefits from non-bread recipes! Together we’ll learn how to incorporate sourdough into new and old recipes, and will demo a non-bread sourdough recipe, with a tasting of this final product.
This 3-hour workshop will go over the basics of sourdough, how to maintain and care for your starter, and why it’s such a fun tool to have in your kitchen. Newbies and veteran sourdough bakers alike are encouraged to join. Everyone will leave with their own jar of starter and the knowledge to continue baking delicious non-bread treats with it at home!
This will be an in-person class. Chatham University’s current policy requires COVID-19 vaccinations for all students participating in face-to-face classes or campus activities. Additionally, the current policy states that mask-wearing is required indoors.

Instructor: Chloe Newman
Chloe first fell in love with sourdough baking in 2016, although she’s always had a deep connection to cooking and the community of food. Naturally-leavened bread has become a strong expression of her overlapping backgrounds in visual art and organic life sciences, as well as her more recent studies in sustainability and local food systems.
In January 2019, Chloe became the founder and baker of Crust Worthy, a small-scale, community-supported baking operation, providing organic-grain, hand-crafted, naturally-leavened bread and specialty baked goods to local areas in Pittsburgh, PA.
