The Global Sourdough Market Is Witnessing High Growth Owing To the Increasing Expansion of Bakeries in the World
Simply put, sourdough is yeast bread made with yeast and water. The yeast used in this bread is quite active, which is why the dough becomes extremely yeasty (though other yeasts may be used). The natural yeast found in sourdough helps to create an optimum environment for the growth of other organisms in the bread. The natural bacteria present in sourdough helps to regulate yeast production so that the latter does not overgrow and cause a bad smell or an unpleasant taste in the bread. The natural bacteria also help to regulate the acid levels in the dough and the resultant flavors. The bacteria present in the bread improves its storing qualities by improving the lactic acid making it better than ordinary bread (and thus cheaper as well), which in turn means that it can be stored for a longer period before having to be reused. The increasing expansion of bakeries all over the world, especially in the developing regions is enhancing the growth of the global sourdough market . For...
