SOURDOUGH SCHOOL

South London bakery Brick House’s beloved San Franciscostyle (slow fermentation) sourdough loaves appear in bread baskets at restaurants across London – and now you can learn to make your own. Every Sunday at its Dulwich headquarters (the original ‘brick house’), the pros hold ‘Sourdough in a Day’ classes, where students learn to make Danish rye, focaccia and a take on the bakery’s classic loaf. A lunch of freshly-made pizza is included (you’ll make the bases) and pupils take home their kit, including a cane banneton (a woven basket to bake a cobbler in) and a sourdough starter. £150 ( brickhousebread.com).
