PRESENTEDBY When a friend of Good- fellow's Field to Fork own- er, Claudia Goodfellow, at- tended a sourdough work- shop last year, she came to Goodfellow for advice about her bread. "She had taken the starter and frozen it, and when it came time to thaw it, she was trying really hard to make it work," Goodfellow said, who spe- cializes in pastry and sour- dough breads. Though her friend was ready to toss out her seem- ingly lifeless starter, Good- fellow was able to restore the ailing dough to its ro- bustly bubbling glory. "She went from feeling incompetent to feeling em- powered with a little more knowledge," Goodfellow said. Goodfellow's sourdough class will give home cooks a hands-on opportunity to learn about making bread from little more than flour, water, and salt. "I always felt intimidat- ed by baking when I was growing up," Goodfellow, a Red Seal chef who branched into baking after culinary school. Having spent time work- ing at Intercontinental Ho- tel's pastry department and Forno Cultura - an es- teemed Italian bakery in downtown Toronto - Good- fellow said she wanted to be closer to where food was being produced. "We noticed we were so far separated from the peo- ple actually making the in- gredients, the produce and the flour, we wanted to get closer to the farmers," Goodfellow said. Not finding a space the felt quite like home in Guelph, Goodfellow said the space in Rockwood had the right energy. "We're able to connect directly with the farmers," she said. "We try to im- merse ourselves in the community and put action behind our words," Good- fellow said. This year, the bakery will launch a winter CSA (community supported ag- riculture) from January to March that will offer a se- lection of produce curated from local farms and greenhouses. Tickets for each class are $65 plus tax per person to be paid via e-transfer to goodfellows.fieldto- fork@gmail.com. During the class held at Goodfellows (155 Main St. S. in Rockwood), a charcu- terie board made in-house will be served, as well as loaves of fresh-baked bread. The classes run from 6 to 9 p.m. with the bread- making class on Jan. 21, and the gluten-free bread- making class on Jan. 28. Attendees will each take home a portion of sour- dough starter, and loaf of bread to be baked at home. Attendees will also re- ceive a recipe booklet with instructions on how to start and maintain a sour- dough starter, recipes, techniques, and equipment checklist. More information is available at www.goodfel- lows.ca.
