About
Sourdough bread and fermented foods are becoming increasing popular for a variety of reasons. Easier to digest, as some of the starches and sugars have already been broken down, consuming this type of product is also known to have health benefits. Sourdough contains more vitamins and minerals and is lower in sugars than other breads plus it tastes great, has a good crust and a light 'crumb'. Fermentation is the best method for preserving foods in order to maintain and even boost its nutritional value.
