Ratings and Reviews

It is very clear to see chef Ovando's passion for bread in this course. He does a great job of showing the fundamentals of working with sourdough, and then pushing the process into new flavour combinations. A great course if you want to get into sourdough, or improve your bakes.
Very informative course, great recipes and great techniques using sourdough starter. Already tried one recipe and the bread turned out just great! English translation was poor but overall I'm satisfied with this course. Thank You!

As a bagel baker, I was curious about what the recipe would be. Sorry to say, both the recipe and technique for your bagels is not great. I feel bad for people who will use this information thinking it's an authentic NY bagel.
