Dear bakers -
I have a dear friend who I've promised to show how to make bread for years and years, but, shamefully, have never got around to it - she always says 'call me when you're mixing the dough' but so often it's at 5 in the morning and I just don't have the heart!
Anyway, now she's moving to Melbourne (Dandenongs actually), so I'd love to send her off to do a day's bread making training. Can anyone recommend somewhere that runs a good course? A quick web search has brought up 'Marg and Marees', it doesn't look like they do a sourdough though.
Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
Happy fermenting and thanks!

Brasserie Bread run courses at their Sydney bakery. They are very popular. The Artisan Baker Association and TAFE Ultimo College are also collaborating on a baking workshop in early 2009. Danubian (Boris) will be our teacher... can't wait!

A few weeks ago I did a brilliant course at the Red Beard at Trentham. It was very hands on and informative and a pleasure to bake in the 120 year old Scotch oven. They may not have another workshop until February or later though.
Apparently there are regular 1-day workshops at the Abottsford Convent. I haven't attended one myself, but info is on their website as well (as for the Red Beard).
