Victoria Redhead Miller, author of “From No-knead to Sourdough: A Simpler Approach to Handmade Bread,” presents “Make Your Own Sourdough” at two upcoming events at peninsula libraries.

Miller will provide instruction on making, maintaining, and baking with sourdough at 6 p.m. Thursday, Jan. 31, at the Port Angeles Library, 2210 S. Peabody St., and 1 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 2, at the Sequim Library, 630 N. Sequim Ave.

Sourdough starter, activated by wild yeast, can be used for making a lot more than just loaf breads and pizza. Miller, who lives on a 40-acre off-the-grid farm outside of Sequim, will show that it’s easier to use and keep than one might think.

In her newest book, Miller blends her own journey toward self-reliance with her fascination for traditional homesteading skills and love of good food. Miller’s previous books include “Craft Distilling” and “Pure Poultry.”

Space is limited and registration is required to attend.

Register at www.nols.org or by contacting your local NOLS branch.

Participants are invited to bring their own pint-sized jars with a wide mouth and a lid; some jars will be provided.

Miller will have copies of her books for sale and signing after each presentation.
