About Homemade sourdough bread

Homemade sourdough bread is a classic creation often associated with European cuisine, particularly France and Italy. Made from a simple combination of flour, water, salt, and naturally occurring wild yeast, sourdough is unique for its fermentation process, which helps develop its tangy flavor and airy texture. This bread is typically free of added sugars and preservatives, making it a wholesome choice for those seeking minimally processed foods. Its slow fermentation can improve digestibility, as the natural microbes partially break down gluten and enhance nutrient absorption. Sourdough contains essential minerals like iron and calcium, along with probiotics that support gut health. However, it is still a source of carbohydrates and may not be suitable for certain low-carb diets. Enjoy it sliced fresh or toasted; it pairs well with nutritious toppings like avocado, hummus, or lean proteins for a balanced meal.
