Say "I Loaf You" with Fresh Sourdough Bread

More than just a food, bread is a love language all its own, and the foundation for so many of the most cherished dishes around the world. Bread is a whole sensory experience—the heavenly scent of loaves baking, the enticing crunch of crust breaking, and the comfort of soft, warm bread in your mouth.

The most digestible bread you've ever had: Because of the probiotics in sourdough starters, a lot of the gluten is already digested by the time it goes into the oven, so all sourdoughs are lower in gluten than regular bread—but if you'd rather have no gluten at all, this is the starter for you.

Why Gluten-Free Sourdough Is Good For Your Gut

Probiotics in Sourdough Starter: As your starter ferments, the wild yeast and bacteria consume the sugar content in the flour you feed it, effectively pre-digesting it and making it easier for your body to process. Although the probiotics won't survive the baking process, they've already gotten the job done.

Prebiotics in Sourdough Bread: While finished sourdough loaves don't contain probiotics, they are chock-full of prebiotics, a type of fiber which helps the other end of digestion. The bacteria that reside in your gut will feed on the prebiotics, releasing nutrients to your body.

Sourdough is one of the most forgiving cultures to work with, making it a great choice for beginners or breadmaking pros. Our line of sourdough starters gives you the chance to bake your own delicious artisan bread at home—perfect for sandwiches, with butter or jam, or simply fresh from the oven.
