Sourdough's Magic
An ancient enchant for all
What is Sourdough? Mother Nature's
recipe Sourdough, or natural leaven, is a "starter" in which
flour and
water are fermented over several days
with regular addition of flour and
water to allow the growth of naturally
present wild yeast and bacteria.
This starter is then added
to the baker's dough to begin the rising process. Moreover, sourdough
also breaks down starches and
gluten, and unlocks the nutrient rich
grains into healthy, more easily digestible food.
Finally, sourdough is also the secret behind delicious bread
full of holes, with a firm springy crust and a tangy flavor.
