Head over to Dewey Hall for our sourdough bread-baking competition on Friday, March 15th! We are celebrating this art by giving local home bakers a chance to show their skill, and offering attendees a fun culinary experience.
The origins of sourdough bread date to around 14,000 years ago, according to archeological evidence. The use of yeast, however, is relatively recent in the history of bread making, dating to the past 150 years. Before that, sourdough culture was the only leavening agent—and that traditional method has experienced a resurgence in home baking.
