Interesting video about bread:

Why modern sandwich bread is different from 'real' bread.

The plastic wrapped crap you buy as “bread” is an industrial product made from white flour and “fermented” in one hour. Absolute crap, half of it is air, the rest has zero nutrition.

Finding real bread is one reason I look up fine food shops like Alps and Amici in Launceston. Sourdough wholemeal rye, delicious, solid not half air, strong enough to pile on the fillings and good for you, especially if it has small seeds on it—keeps your lower gut healthy, no cancer. Sourdough spelt or wholemeal wheat, all good.

I will get a starter going this week, make my own bread. A ferment happening all night for real flavor.

Now, modern bread is full of chemicals, all so the ferment takes barely an hour. Reach into your plastic bread and remove one floppy slice. Try to spread with butter that is a bit cold. Bread collapses because it is crap, industrial crap.

Forget that shit. Open the bread bin and pull out a half loaf of sourdough bread. Try to spread with the somewhat too cold butter. Butter will spread, bread will stay in one piece.

Sourdough, unlike the plastic crap sold in plastic bags to peasants and pissants is real, is sturdy.

A sourdough ferment is at least 12 hours. It is a lactic bacteria ferment, not an industrially constrained/accelerated yeast explosion.

Longer ferment = more flavor. No chemicals. Time.

Supermarkets—do not sell real bread. Or good meat or health fruit & veg.

Monk doesn't know. Roll Eyes
