Question 1

HOW IS SOURDOUGH DIFFERENT FROM BREAD?

Accepted Answer

Sourdough differs from traditional bread in that it is made completely from wild yeast as opposed to commercial yeast. It develops gluten in a slower way and is my favorite way to get more flavor into plain bread. While it takes a little bit of patience and time compared to traditional yeast bread recipes, the result is a more easily digestible bread full of complex flavor.

Question 2

WHY IS SOURDOUGH BETTER THAN YEAST BREAD?

Accepted Answer

While "better" is certainly subjective, sourdough can be better for people with insulin or gluten troubles as it contains less gluten and has a lower glycemic index than traditional bread.
