Beginner Sourdough is a crash course for those wishing to dive into making a sourdough starter, with tips on how to care for it and a simple recipe to start.
Patrons will be provided the supplies for making their starter and walked through the process with a short presentation. A baking expert will be on hand to answer questions. Patrons will leave with their own sourdough starter, care guide and a simple sourdough bread recipe.
This program is made possible with support and funding from the Friends of Montclair Library.
Montclair Library serves a bustling suburban community in eastern Prince William County. With large glass windows and a stone terrace suited for outdoor performances, the LEED-certified building offers inviting spaces for children, young adults, and adults, including 22 public access computers, a PS5 gaming station, and a fireplace in the reading room.
Library grounds are also home to a restored 19th century historic property known as the Barnes House, an important part of the county’s rich African-American heritage.
Montclair’s community room offers seating for up to 100 people and a large-screen TV for presentations. There are four group study rooms. An individual quiet study room is also available on a first-come, first-served basis.
