How to keep your starters alive and kicking!
The saying "You are what you eat" applies to sourdough starter cultures even more than it does to people!
Tips on starter culture management.
A super vegan alternative to the pesto shown in the video (and much less expensive without all those pine nuts!)
Use a ceramic pizza stone or a cast iron pot lid, heated under the grill/broiler to 300C/572F - 400C/752F. The pizza will bake from underneath and from on top at the same time, and should take less than 3 minutes to finish.
Always leave the oven door open whilst the grill/broiler is heating up, otherwise the thermostat will switch it off.
You're looking for an oven floor temperature of XC/ XF and a dome temperature of XC/XF. Pizza should bake in around 90 seconds.
This ground-breaking course will revolutionise the way you think about pizza, especially sourdough, especially vegan dough, and above all, especially gluten-free!
It delivers professional instruction and original recipes developed, tried and tested by The Artisan Bakery School.
It teaches you to bake gourmet-level, gluten-free & vegan sourdough crust that is:
Great to eat
Great to look at
Super easy to make
Really good for your health
First, you get super simple instructions on how to create a gluten-free sourdough starter, and how to make it into a leaven for your dough. Fermenting the flour is the secret of what makes sourdough so healthy, and the gluten free flours we use here all have extra health benefits of their own, so it's a double-whammy.
Then, print out the download of the comprehensive Course Handbook that's relevant to you. One version shows ingredients measured in grams, the other in cups and spoons. Then pick a recipe, set your leaven, measure your ingredients and just follow the very simple video instruction.
Start by making a sorghum leaven to prepare the Rustic Sour Dough, using white teff, maize and almond meal. Demonstrations of Pizza Espanola and Simple Asparagus Pizza follow, with full recipes given in the Handbook. Vegan topping switches are also suggested.
Next up is The Agroforester Sour Dough, made with chestnut and fava bean flours on a sorghum leaven. Pizza Promiso (vegan heaven) and Dragan's Dalmatian Pizza showcase this mild, creamy crust to perfection.
The Beet-Wheat Sour Dough gives a super-healthy, beetroot and buckwheat crust that lends itself beautifully to smoked fish. Beet-Wheat Bianca & Smoked Salmon, or Pirates' Pizza with smoked mackerel and pomegranate seeds, both add the benefits of the Omegas in oily fish.
The Hempizza Sour Dough glows with virtue; did you know that hemp flour provides all 20 amino acids, including 9 our bodies can't make themselves? Not to mention all those phytonutrients. And it just shines in simple creations like our Happy Goat Pizza or the Peasy Pizza.
For the Grand Finale of the Five Doughs you'll learn the fabulous Pizza Noir Sour, a dramatic, activated-charcoal dough, (so helpful in de-toxing). If the Fig & Blue Cheese Noire doesn't bring the house down, The Red & The Black surely will.
Full instructions are given for making all the pizza sauces, oils and garnishes, so you can mix and match the recipes to suit your taste; the only limit is your imagination!
And of course, you can check out the videos for our essential pro tips on baking pizza, according to your kind of oven.

NOTE: All the dough can be kept in the fridge for a couple days before baking. It can also be used for making bread, rolls or dough balls, so it is super-versatile.
