How it differs from similar foods
Unlike commercially produced breads that often rely on commercial yeast for rapid leavening, this sourdough uses a natural starter. This slow fermentation process develops a more complex flavor profile with a characteristic tang. The texture is also distinct, often chewier and with a more robust crust compared to standard loaves.

How to keep the rest
To maintain freshness, store any unused portions in a cool, dry place, ideally in a bread box or a tightly sealed bag. If you plan to keep it for an extended period, consider freezing the loaf or slices. Thaw at room temperature or toast directly from frozen.
