Since the pandemic, Sourdough Bread has become very popular.

Once you have a starter, fresh home-made bread is always an option. But what else can you make with Sourdough starter?

Join us when Elaine Whitesell returns to the library to talk about Sourdough Baking on Tuesday, September 23 at 6:00 P.M. to answer that question. Whitesell will show and tell the different items you can make with your sour dough starter. And she will bring samples of the various items she has made, allowing us to taste test. Hint, hint - it’s not just bread.
