What is "sourdough bread"?
Sourdough bread is a type of bread that is made from naturally fermented dough, which gives it a unique tangy flavor and chewy texture. The fermentation process is started by mixing flour and water and allowing it to sit for several days, during which naturally occurring wild yeast and lactic acid bacteria from the environment colonize the mixture. This creates a starter culture, which is then used to leaven the bread dough. Sourdough bread is often made with a combination of flour types, including whole wheat, rye, and spelt, which can contribute to its complex flavor profile. Sourdough bread is also often higher in nutrients and easier to digest than other types of bread due to the fermentation process. It is a staple in many cultures around the world and has recently gained popularity as a healthier and more artisanal alternative to commercial bread.
