Summary
Why does bread get a bad rap? Maybe it's because we've forgotten how to prepare it the traditional way. Courtney Queen is a sourdough bread expert and the chef behind Butter for All (a recipe website) and today she explains how bread can be good for you, particularly when it's sourdough!
Courtney goes over how to make it, what flour is best (most digestible and nutrient-rich), whether you need a starter or not to (a-hem) get started, and how entire civilizations have been built on grains and bread.
