How it differs from similar foods

The texture is also distinct, often featuring a chewier crumb and a more robust crust. This difference in taste and texture comes from the wild yeast and bacteria in the sourdough starter.

How to keep the rest
To keep the remaining portion fresh, it is best to store it in a cool, dry place, ideally in a bread box or a loosely tied plastic bag. If you plan to store it for more than a day or two, consider wrapping it tightly and refrigerating it to slow down the staling process.
