Le Petit Paris Workshop
Sourdough Bread
Learn the rhythm of natural fermentation and create rustic sourdough loaves from starter to bake. This hands-on workshop teaches starter care, dough strength, shaping, scoring and baking so you can better understand the flavor, patience and tradition behind artisan sourdough. The class is designed for small groups, with clear demonstrations, guided practice and artisan bakery tips you can reuse at home.
About This Workshop
This is one of the strongest Le Petit Paris bread workshops because it connects technique, tradition, and health-conscious messaging. Students learn how a living sourdough starter works, how fermentation builds flavor, and how shaping and baking affect the final loaf. The workshop should be marketed as a true artisan bread experience: patient, natural, practical, and deeply satisfying.
