Bread always seems to be the first thing that people cut out of their diets when trying to cut down, but sourdough not only delivers a tangy flavour that’s perfect for toast and sandwiches, it is good for you, too! The fermentation process for sourdough bread can lead to an increased number of prebiotic and probiotic-like properties, which help improve gut health. It freezes exceptionally well so you won’t be tempted to eat the whole loaf.
