In celebration of #RealBreadWeek 2016, I would like to share my top 10 sourdough recipes.
Best sourdough recipes for Real Bread Week
Real Bread Week is an annual event by the Real Bread Campaign celebrating real bread and its makers. While real bread can be leavened with commercial yeast or sourdough starter, I’d like to dedicate this real bread tribute to sourdough loaves specifically. Slow-fermented loaves of sourdough bread, using naturally-occurring lactobacilli and yeasts, are my favourite.
