Food workshops are a fun way to expand not only your cooking and baking skills but also your culinary tastes, writes Emily Kovach for PA Eats.

If you have always wanted to learn how to make your own sourdough bread, now is a great time to sign up for a class at Vituperio Bread Baking Studio in Lansdale.

The knowledgeable instructors will unveil the ancient method of fermentation and baking, and teach the basics of how to create a sourdough starter.

You will also learn how to use the starter to make a variety of baked goods.

The studio is located at 1820 West Point Pike in Lansdale.

Other fun local food shops included a workshop on making pierogi by Mom-Mom’s Kitchen Pierogi-al School held at the Frankford Arsenal Building 39 in Northeast Philadelphia and a Cheese Basics Class at the Philly Cheese School held in classroom space in Philadelphia’s Italian Market.
