TIME.
One sourdough takes us 18-26, some even 36 hours to produce. Our bread brings you a host of benefits:
With its long fermentation process, it offers improved digestibility and a lower glycemic index compared to conventional bread as well as the "so-called" sourdough (that is not proper sourdough because yeast and artificial rising aids added).
Our 100% natural fermentation also enhances the flavor, texture, and shelf life of the bread, ensuring a lekker and longer-lasting experience. Also way easier to digest.
Of course our flour is free from GMO & glyphosate. The quality of the ingredients play a big role... interested in the benefits of sourdough, the real problem and the truth about gluten?
