Nourishme Organics has launched an artisanal French sourdough culture for Australians to bake fresh sourdough bread from home.
The Australian gut health brand has made the 100 per cent pure starter culture free from fillers. It is also vegan friendly, dairy free and comes with instructions on how to bake the bread within 24 hours.
Food Scientist, registered nutritionist and founder of Nourishme Organics Kriben Govender said homemade sourdough is not only more economical and eco-friendly than factory-made bread, it’s also more nutritious.
“It’s free from chemicals, preservatives and artificial leavening agents often seen in store-bought bread. It also lasts longer as it’s not as susceptible to mould spoilage due to the process of acidification by lactic acidic bacteria,” said Govender.
“Sourdough is easy to digest and when made with wholegrain flours it is a great source of dietary fibre and prebiotics, which helps our gut cells to function properly and helps maintain a healthy and balanced gut ecosystem.”
The Nourishme Organics sourdough culture is now available from the online store from $19.95.
