#51 - Your Sourdough Questions Answered

"How do I use different ancient grains in making sourdough bread?" "How do they behave differently from wheat?" "How do I freeze and store dough or finished bread?" "And why do all those loaves on Instagram look like THAT, and mine looks like THIS?" All these questions and many more crop up when we discuss sourdough bread. Sourdough bread is one of the hottest topics when we talk about ancestral foods. “Give us this day our daily bread,” “Give the Romans bread and circuses,” “I am the bread of life,” “Turn these stones into bread.” Bread is ubiquitous throughout our history and collective human memory. We both love sourdough bread for its flavor and digestibility, and the accessibility of nutrition in the grains once they’ve been fermented through the sourdough process.
