The exact origin of sourdough bread is not known, as it has been a staple food in various cultures for thousands of years. Many historians believe that the ancient Egyptians were the first to develop sourdough around 1500 BC. Archaeological evidence shows that the Egyptians used sourdough to make leavened bread.
Sourdough was also used by the ancient Greeks and Romans, who believed that it had health benefits due to its natural fermentation process. During the Middle Ages, sourdough became a popular type of bread in Europe, and it was often used as a method of payment or exchange.
In the United States, sourdough bread became popular during the California Gold Rush in the mid-1800s. Miners often carried sourdough starter with them as they traveled west, and it became a staple food for many people in the region.
Overall, it is difficult to pinpoint exactly who invented sourdough bread, as it was likely developed independently by multiple cultures over thousands of years.

What is the best sourdough recipe? List ingredients.
Sourdough bread is a traditional bread that is made from a mixture of flour and water that has been fermented with wild yeast and beneficial bacteria, also known as a sourdough starter. There are many sourdough recipes available, but here is a simple recipe with basic ingredients:
Ingredients:
- 500g all-purpose flour
- 350g water
- 150g sourdough starter
- 10g salt
Instructions:
1. In a large bowl, mix the flour and water until the mixture forms a dough. Cover the bowl with a damp cloth and let it rest for about 30 minutes.
2. Add the sourdough starter to the dough and mix it well. Knead it for 5-10 minutes until the dough is smooth and elastic. Cover the bowl with a damp cloth and let it rest overnight for at least 8-12 hours at room temperature.
3. After the dough has fermented, add salt and knead it again for a few minutes until the salt is evenly distributed. Let it rest for another hour or two so the bread can rise again.
4. Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C). Place a baking stone or baking sheet in the oven to heat up.
5. Shape the dough into a round or oblong shape, and place it onto a parchment-lined baking sheet or onto a baking stone. Cut a few slits into the top of the dough to help it rise.
6. Bake for 30-40 minutes, until the crust is golden brown and the internal temperature of the bread reaches 195-200°F (90-95°C).
7. Let the bread cool completely before slicing and serving.
This recipe makes one large loaf. You can experiment with different flours, hydration levels, and fermentation times to create your own personalized sourdough recipe.

Define OO flour.
What is 'Strong flour'?
What is the difference between oland wheat and hard red winter wheat?
What is the difference between oland wheat and Hard White Wheat?
What is the difference between oland wheat and Soft White Wheat?
Sure, here are the answers to your questions:
1. OO flour is a type of flour commonly used in Italian baking. It is a very finely milled flour with a protein content between 9 and 10%, similar to all-purpose flour. However, OO flour is more finely ground, making it more suitable for making pasta and pizza dough.
2. Strong flour is a type of flour that is high in gluten and protein content, typically made from hard wheat varieties. It is commonly used in bread making as its high gluten content gives bread dough its elasticity, allowing it to rise and keep its shape when baked.
3. The main difference between Øland wheat and hard red winter wheat is in their protein content and gluten structure. Øland wheat has a lower protein content and contains less gluten than hard red winter wheat. This makes Øland wheat easier to digest and bake with. Additionally, Øland wheat has a unique flavor and texture, which makes it a popular choice for artisanal bread.
4. Hard white wheat and Øland wheat are both varieties of wheat that are lower in protein content than hard red winter wheat. However, hard white wheat has a slightly higher protein content than Øland wheat, which makes it better suited for making bread. Øland wheat, on the other hand, has a more distinctive flavor and texture which makes it ideal for pastries, pancakes and other baked goods.
5. Soft white wheat is a type of wheat that is low in protein content and gluten, making it unsuitable for breadmaking. Instead, it is commonly used for making pastries, cakes, cookies, and other baked goods that require a softer, more delicate texture. However, Øland wheat is also low in protein content and gluten, but it has a richer flavor and nuttier texture which makes it a better option than soft white wheat for some baked goods.

Sure! Here are the protein and gluten contents for each of the flours mentioned:
1. OO flour: protein content between 9-10%, gluten content not specifically measured but likely similar to all-purpose flour.
2. Strong flour: protein content between 11-13%, high gluten content.
3. Øland wheat: protein content around 10%, lower gluten content than hard red winter wheat.
4. Hard white wheat: protein content around 11-13%, slightly higher gluten content than Øland wheat.
5. Soft white wheat: protein content around 8.5-10.5%, low gluten content.
