Beneficial Effects and Functional Aspects of Sourdough Technology
Abstract
Sourdough is a mixture of flour and water that is fermented with lactic acid bacteria and yeasts. Actually, the use of
the sourdough process for the production of sourdough bread has a long tradition but in recent years, traditional sourdough
breads have again started to attract consumers as a result of improved organoleptic properties, pronounced flavor, prolonged
shelf life and natural production without the use of any additives. These improved properties are results of the some
biochemical changes occur during sourdough fermentation.
