Sourdough September celebrates the world’s oldest leavened bread, giving everyone a chance to enjoy this delicious delight the entire month.
The entire month of September provides an opportunity for breadbakers across the world to share their talent for making sourdough bread. Initially starting as a campaign, this month-long bread holiday has turned into a food celebration. #sourdoughseptember
- It is believed sourdough originated in Ancient Egyptian times around 1500 BC.
- It appears the French bakers received credit for bringing this bread to San Francisco during the California Gold Rush in 1848.
- San Francisco bakers are using the same culture used during the Gold Rush. In fact, to this day bakers refer to it to as the “Mother dough.”
- Louise Boudin risked her life to save the original “Mother Dough” during the Great San Francisco Earthquake of 1906.
- You should bake the bread in glass because the metal in baking sheets causes the dough to corrode.
