If your local bakery doesn’t have real sourdough (the chewy, tangy kind with a thick crust), don’t fret. You can make your own starter with just flour and water—it’s like adopting a pet that smells like beer and makes you breakfast.
The process is messy, weirdly satisfying, and ridiculously frugal. You learn patience, you get your hands in the dough, and eventually, you pull a crackling loaf out of the oven that your whole kitchen will rejoice about.
And the best part? Every time you eat that slice, you’re feeding your body something that works with your health, not against it. That’s a feeling no prescription bottle can replicate.
