The Sourdough Club

A social enterprise where a community of bakers gather and share knowledge

Our small club is run from The Sourdough School and is the alternative way to learn if you cannot attend a course in person. Learn from Dr Vanessa Kimbell how to make the healthiest bread in the world and improve digestion, boost your mood, and connect with a supportive community that’s passionate about baking for better health.

Discard & Old Bread Recipes


No one like to throw things away. The recipes in this section are about using up discard, and old bread.  There are different levels of dicard, and week +  old starter is acidic and doesnt have much raising power. It is also necessary to build your starter to makes advanced bakes, with 2 or 3 builds over a a few days. So some of the recipes in here specify 1st build starter, for optimal results.
