Sourdough Health Benefits

Several months later, in the middle of the night nursing my newborn babe. A page from a book I owned about traditional food preparation methods flashed into my mind. Something about sourdough starter being able to break down gluten to make it more easily digestible. A lightbulb went off and I jumped on the information.

I pulled that starter from the back of my fridge, nursed it back to health, apologized profusely for neglecting it. And made some bread about a week later. Experimenting on myself was not something I was afraid of. For the love of bread, I was willing.

That first taste of real toast after months of avoiding it was BLISS.

Then I waited . . .

Nothing happened. Not a twinge. My insides didn’t complain at all! So I dove in headfirst and made ALL THE THINGS. I became obsessed with learning about grains and the benefits of sourdough – which are many.

I spent years creating recipes my family would enjoy. And, I wanted sourdough to be simple, accessible, and less intimidating. Even if you never make a loaf of bread (which might break my heart, so don’t tell me if you don’t). Therefore, I hope these recipes will find their way into your home and benefit your family as they have mine.
