sourdough bread recipe

Sourdough bread is made using a natural fermentation process with wild yeast and lactic acid bacteria from a sourdough starter, a mixture of flour and water that has fermented over time. The process typically involves mixing flour, water, salt, and the starter to create dough, allowing it to rise and develop flavor. After several hours, the dough is shaped and left to rise again before baking. The result is a crusty, tangy bread with a chewy texture. Sourdough’s unique taste and texture come from the long fermentation period, which enhances both its flavor and nutritional value.
