Sourdough loaf is a traditional bread known for its tangy flavor and hearty texture, originating from ancient baking traditions in Egypt and widely popularized in European and American cuisines. The dough is made with a simple combination of flour, water, and salt, fermented with a naturally occurring wild yeast and lactic acid bacteria culture. This fermentation process not only gives sourdough its distinct taste but also makes the bread easier to digest for many people and may improve nutrient absorption. Sourdough is generally lower in additives and preservatives compared to commercial breads. Depending on the flour used, it can be a source of fiber, vitamins, and minerals. However, it is still a form of carbohydrate and should be consumed in moderation for those managing caloric intake or blood sugar levels. Its artisan feel and rich flavor make it a versatile option for meals or snacks.
