About Sourdough wholemeal bread

Sourdough Wholemeal Bread is a hearty, nutrient-dense loaf crafted from wholemeal flour, water, salt, and a natural sourdough starter. Its origins trace back to ancient fermentation techniques, widely associated with European baking traditions. The bread’s defining feature is its tangy flavor, which comes from the natural fermentation of the flour by wild yeast and lactobacilli. Packed with dietary fiber from wholemeal flour, this bread supports digestion and helps maintain stable blood sugar levels. The fermentation process enhances its nutritional profile by breaking down phytic acid, making minerals like magnesium and iron more bioavailable. Plus, sourdough may be gentler on digestion compared to commercial yeasted bread. While nutrient-rich, it’s worth noting that sourdough wholemeal bread can have a higher sodium content due to added salt, so moderation is key for those watching their salt intake. Overall, it’s an excellent choice for a balanced, wholesome diet.
