Is sourdough bread healthier than regular bread?
Is sourdough bread healthier than regular bread? Sourdough offers benefits like easier digestibility due to gluten breakdown, a lower glycemic index, and increased prebiotics for gut health. Its natural leavening process and reduced phytic acid enhance mineral absorption. The extended fermentation creates a richer, tangier flavor, appealing to those favoring traditional methods. Some with mild gluten sensitivities report improved tolerance. Sourdough provides a more natural, flavorful, and potentially digestible alternative.
How to store my sourdough bread?
To store sourdough bread, keep it in a cool, dry place like a bread box or cloth bag for airflow. Avoid refrigeration to prevent staling. If not eating within a few days, freeze slices in an airtight container. To enjoy, thaw at room temperature or lightly toast.
