Bread Science (Part 3) - Sourdough Bread Science

Here is the third installment of the bread science series! Sourdough Bread Science! Here I discuss my favorite genre of bread--sourdough. Sourdough is mysterious, where some things are understood but many more aspects... aren't. Which is interesting considering it's been around for millennia. In this video I go over the wild yeast and bacteria that inhabit and colonize sourdough and how sourdough starters influence bread relative to bread relative to commercial yeast.
