Sourdough bread has been around for thousands of years—the ancients had it right all along! Sourdough has more nutrients and is easier to digest than bread made with baker’s yeast. Plus, it contains less gluten than other breads, and many with gluten sensitivities find they can still enjoy its distinctive delicious taste.
Our sourdough starter comes in a pint jar containing nothing but organic hard red wheat flour, water, and the living plant bacteria that make it so special. You can use it for bread, pizza crust—even waffles and pancakes!
Bread for Life starter is different from typical sourdough starters. It’s much sweeter and makes a fluffy, beautifully textured bread, much like sandwich bread. Unlike most starters, which contain anaerobic bacteria and can be left on the counter, our starter contains aerobic bacteria which need to be refrigerated. None of this starter needs to be dumped out, and the “float test” isn’t accurate either; it will sink.
