Sigi Goolden reviewed: 'Let's start! mastering sourdough starters' live on Zoom (Saturdays)

"Me and my husband both found Sharon Roberts not only to have in-depth knowledge of sourdough bread, i.e. the science behind how the starter evolves, but she also has a wonderful infectious enthusiasm! At the end of our zoom morning she left us excited and raring to go with a new hobby and looking forward to signing up to a full day of sourdough bread making. Thank you Sharon for your time so generously given and for your supportive emails."

Learn Sourdough responded:

Robert Posselt reviewed: Master of Sourdough Special Offer Bundle 2 extraordinary events on Zoom

"Having been given a voucher for CraftCourses I decided on a 'Making your own Sourdough' course, and am certainly pleased I made the right choice! A pleasure to have met Sharon my tutor through the airwaves on Zoom. I really enjoyed the journey building the all important starter from scratch, and nursing it to maturity for the practical, resulting in eventually baking a couple of loaves of real proper sourdough bread. Sharons close attention, and daily instructions together with her infectious enthusiasm and sharing her experience over the weeks was very much appreciated. She is an encyclopedia of information which she willingly shared at every stage! I cannot thank her enough! At the end of the course I had made 2 delicious loaves which I had to resist tasting as they came out the oven until the following morning, and was not disappointed. Absolutely delicious! For anyone wanting to learn how to make Sourdough bread, look no further. You will learn from an expert who is passionate about her craft. Great value for money. Highly recommended!"

Learn Sourdough responded:

" Thank you sincerely Robert for your wonderful 5 star review. It was a pleasure meeting you on Zoom and teaching you. It was a delight to witness you evolving from an absolute beginner, without any prior knowledge of sourdough, to baking 2 truly magnificent loaves of real sourdough bread. I'm thrilled that you will be keeping up the momentum of baking your own sourdough bread. You'll be very popular with family and friends. Thank you once again for choosing Learn Sourdough. Your review will surely inspire others. "

Gill Balfour reviewed: 'Let's start! mastering sourdough starters' live on Zoom (Saturdays)

"Sharon lead me through the process on zoom. She also sent online two booklets to help. One was a diary day by day to help making a starter. Also she was available by email to help along the way with any difficulties. She also researched local shops online to help me find suitable flours! I would certainly recommend this course. "

Learn Sourdough responded:

" Thank you Gill for your 5* review. I'm delighted you enjoyed the event. It was a pleasure meeting you. Wishing you many happy years of making nutritious and delicious sourdough bread. Kindest regards, Sharon"

Sharon is a powerhouse of information and her exuberance makes for a lively interactive session of stimulating conversation and learning.

Raymond Hill reviewed: Master of Sourdough Special Offer Bundle 2 extraordinary events on Zoom

"For a sourdough starter novice like me the course contained a wealth of information and practical steps to take the fear and mystery out of the process of producing an authentic sourdough starter. A good mix of kitchen science and practical advice, together with the friendly atmosphere created by Sharon made this a excellent introduction to tart of real bread making. My own journey starts tonight!"

Learn Sourdough responded:

" Thank you Ray for your kind review. It was a pleasure meeting you. You're now a 'Master of Sourdough Starters'. Congratulations! Kindest regards, Sharon"

Philip and Elen reviewed: Let's start! Mastering sourdough the starters

"Many thanks to Sharon for a wonderful Saturday morning sourdough masterclass, it was a great way to learn the art of sourdough, with a totally enthusiastic and committed teacher. There was also the benefit of a friendly team of fellow participants, keen to help and exchange ideas, while tasting the fresh made sourdough. We have progressed from little idea of sourdough, to going away with so much knowledge and very keen to actually make sourdough products with the starter ingredients supplied."

Learn Sourdough responded:

" It was a pleasure meeting you both. Thank you for your outstanding review. I'm thrilled that you enjoyed the event. It was a lot of fun wasn't it. I look forward to seeing you both again at another Learn Sourdough event. Sincerely, Sharon"

Angela Corbet reviewed: Let's start! Mastering sourdough the starters

"I've just done Sharon's "Let's Start! Mastering Sourdough Starters" session & can highly recommend it if, like me, you've had umpteen unsuccessful attempts at raising your own consistent & well-behaved "fridge pet" of the sourdough variety. She demystifies the whole process & explains the science behind it. You get to start your very own starter, and learn how to raise it, care for it, store it and revive it to peak activity when you need it. There are copious notes to take home, though it's worth also making your own as ideas & questions pop up. (Plus some very worthwhile vouchers for local & online shops and a dough scraper too.) Not to mention trying out her very excellent bread with a variety of intriguing toppings! All in all, a very interesting & worthwhile session."

Learn Sourdough responded:

" I know you're going great guns with making sourdough bread since coming onto 'Let's Start!' I'm really delighted for you. Thank you for your terrific review. It will surely inspire other 'sourdoughers' to book. Sincerely, Sharon"

Rebecca Jacques reviewed: Let's start! Mastering sourdough the starters

"Attended Sharon’s sourdough workshop today which not only comprehensively explained the process of making a sourdough starter (and walking away with my own) but also spoke about the gut microbiome. This included the opportunity to sample really yummy sourdough bread with lots of local spreads and oils as well as an amazing homemade probiotic spread. Really fab, enjoyable and informative few hours. Highly recommend!"

Learn Sourdough responded:

" Thank you Rebecca for your exciting review. The gut microbiome and real sourdough bread go hand in hand. I'm truly delighted you enjoyed my event so much. I know you've booked onto one of my other events. Thank you. I look forward to sharing more of my expertise with you and helping you progress smoothly on your sourdough journey. Sincerely, Sharon"
