Understanding the Science Behind Sourdough
The Role of Fermentation in Sourdough
Sourdough baking isn’t just about making delicious bread—it’s a science. At the heart of sourdough lies fermentation, a natural process that transforms simple ingredients into flavorful, digestible bread. By harnessing the power of wild yeast and lactic acid bacteria, sourdough bakers create dough with superior texture, flavor, and nutritional value.
Health Benefits of Sourdough
One of the most remarkable aspects of sourdough is its potential to ease gluten sensitivity. Through the fermentation process, sourdough bacteria break down gluten proteins, making them more digestible for individuals with gluten intolerance. Additionally, sourdough bread boasts a lower glycemic index compared to its commercial counterparts, making it an excellent choice for those looking to maintain stable blood sugar levels.
