Let’s talk about Sourdough Bread!

 

Sourdough bread is a type of bread that is made using a sourdough starter, which is a mixture of flour and water that has been fermented with wild yeast and bacteria. This starter is used in place of commercial yeast to leaven the dough and give the bread its characteristic sour flavour. 

 

One of the key benefits of sourdough bread is that it is easier to digest than bread made with commercial yeast. This is because the fermentation process that takes place during the production of sourdough bread helps to break down the gluten and other complex carbohydrates in the flour, making it easier for the body to digest.

 

In addition to being easier to digest, sourdough bread is also thought to have a number of other health benefits.

Studies suggest that it may help to:

✔️ improve gut health
✔️ boost the immune system
✔️ reduce the risk of certain diseases such as type 2 diabetes and heart disease

 

If you’re interested in making your own sourdough bread at home, the process can be a bit time-consuming, but it is also very rewarding. You’ll need to start by creating your own sourdough starter, which can take several days or even weeks to mature. Once your starter is ready, you’ll be able to use it to make a variety of different sourdough breads, including classic sourdough loaves, sourdough rolls, and even sourdough pizza crusts.
