Sourdough

Our sourdough journey started because we have a family member with gluten sensitivity.  We use to spend a lot of money on gluten-free products.  So, when we discovered that sourdough is a fantastic option for people with gluten sensitivity, we immediately jumped on the wagon.  We managed to get a starter from a friend and since then, it has been nothing but amazing.  Because sourdough is naturally fermented, the bactaria consumes the gluten and therefore makes it such a fantastic option for anyone with gluten sensitivity or people with gut issues.

Sourdough is a healthier option than normal bread and is often hailed as a superfood.  It contains natural bacteria that makes it easier to digest, which means it is much lighter on the gut.

Sourdough is made from flour and water and is naturally fermented by the lactic and wild yeast bacteria.  It goes by different names, depending on where you live.

Sourdough is leavened bread, which means it is naturally fermented by using flour and water in stead of fast acting yeast.  It produces a tangy flavour with a slightly chewy texture.
