About Sauerteig bread

Sauerteig bread, commonly known as sourdough, is a traditional bread originating from Europe, particularly Germany. Made using natural fermentation, its key ingredients are flour, water, and salt, brought together by a starter culture of wild yeast and lactic acid bacteria. This process gives Sauerteig its signature tangy flavor and chewy texture. Unlike commercial breads, it is entirely free of added sugars, preservatives, or artificial yeast. Rich in fiber, sourdough supports healthy digestion and promotes a balanced gut microbiome due to its probiotic content. The slow fermentation may also help break down gluten, making it easier to digest for some individuals. Sauerteig bread is lower in glycemic index than many modern breads, offering a steadier release of energy when consumed. However, as with all bread, it is best enjoyed in moderation due to its carbohydrate content. A nutrient-dense choice steeped in tradition, Sauerteig is perfect for mindful eaters.
