Sourdough is unique because it’s naturally fermented using wild yeast and beneficial bacteria from a starter. This slow fermentation process not only gives sourdough its signature tangy flavor and chewy texture, but it also improves its digestibility and shelf life compared to bread made with commercial yeast.

For the best freshness, store your sourdough in a linen or paper bag at room temperature. This helps preserve the crust’s texture. Avoid plastic, as it can trap moisture and make the bread soggy. If you don’t plan to finish the bread within a few days, slice it and freeze the pieces in an airtight container. You can toast or warm the slices when you’re ready to enjoy them!

Sourdough offers numerous health benefits. Thanks to the fermentation process, it’s easier to digest, as the gluten and phytic acid are partially broken down. This makes vital nutrients like iron, magnesium, and zinc more accessible to your body. Sourdough is also lower on the glycemic index, which means it can help keep blood sugar levels steady. The presence of prebiotics and probiotics supports gut health by promoting healthy bacteria. Sourdough is a clean, natural bread, free from preservatives and additives, making it a great choice for anyone looking for wholesome, minimally processed options.

While we don’t currently offer gluten-free sourdough, some people with gluten sensitivities find sourdough easier to digest due to the fermentation process that breaks down some of the gluten. However, it’s important to note that our sourdough still contains gluten and is not suitable for those with celiac disease.

Counter Storage (3-5 Days)

• Best Option: Keep your bread in a breathable environment. Wrap it in a clean, dry kitchen towel or store it in a paper bag. This helps retain its crusty exterior while keeping the inside soft and fresh. You can also place it in a bread box.
• Avoid: Storing in plastic, as it can make the crust soggy and speed up mold growth.

Refrigerator Storage (1-2 Weeks)

• Tip: Refrigeration isn’t ideal for sourdough, as it tends to dry out the bread faster. However, if you must store it in the fridge, wrap the loaf tightly in plastic wrap or foil to help preserve moisture.
• Reheat: Before eating, warm the bread in the oven at 300°F for 10-15 minutes to bring back some of its texture and flavor.

Freezer Storage (Up to 3 Months)

• Best Method: Let the bread cool completely before freezing. Wrap it tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil, then place it in a freezer-safe bag, squeezing out as much air as possible.
• Slicing Tip: Pre-slice the bread before freezing so you can take out only what you need without thawing the entire loaf.
• Thawing: To thaw, leave the bread at room temperature for a few hours or place it in the oven at 300°F for 10-15 minutes. If you’re in a hurry, pop a frozen slice in the toaster!
