About Bread sourdough

Sourdough bread is a traditional, tangy loaf made using a natural fermentation process involving wild yeast and lactic acid bacteria. Originating from ancient Egypt and embraced by cuisines worldwide, sourdough is crafted with just flour, water, and salt—without the need for commercial yeast. This fermentation not only enhances its complex flavor but also improves digestibility by breaking down gluten and phytic acid, making nutrients like magnesium and iron more accessible. Sourdough has a lower glycemic index compared to many breads, which can help with blood sugar control. It’s also rich in fiber, supporting gut health. However, as with most breads, sourdough can be high in carbohydrates and sodium, so portion control is key for balanced nutrition. Whether enjoyed plain or topped with spreads, sourdough is celebrated for its wholesome and hearty qualities.
