How ancient science can stop your bread from going stale
Scientists have developed innovative packaging using starch and salt-infused paperboard to keep bread fresh for over 72 hours by managing moisture. This complements natural sourdough fermentation, where lactic acid bacteria produce organic acids and antimicrobial peptides, effectively preventing mould and slowing staleness. Embracing these ancient, scientifically backed methods offers a natural solution to prolong bread's life and reduce waste.
