I love Bread, and it often gets a bad wrap! No pun intended, well, maybe! All things in Balance, I believe Bread, Breaking Bread, and the practice of making Bread, is very Earthy. Flour is a Raw Food, and when you combine flour with water and leave it sit, it attracts beneficial bacteria from the air! That’s actually how You make a Sourdough Starter. Read what EatingWell.com says about the Benefits of Sourdough.
So, why not make Sourdough Bread on Earth-Day!?
To me, it’s a very earthy thing to do and the process helps me get grounded. Having and caring for a Sourdough Starter means providing daily care for a living culture!
