Sun-dried tomato and parmesan in a slow-fermented sourdough.

Con Ternura's naturally leavened sourdough with sun-dried tomatoes and parmesan folded through the dough. The tomatoes bring a sweet, concentrated tang; the parmesan brings salt and a savory depth that makes the loaf taste almost like it has been buttered already. Toast it for a tomato sandwich, tear it beside pasta, or eat it plain.

Long fermentation with a wild starter breaks down much of the gluten and phytic acid in the flour before you eat it, which is why many people who feel heavy after ordinary bread digest true sourdough comfortably. No commercial yeast, no dough conditioners, no preservatives.

Who this is for

• You make pasta, soup or a big salad and want the bread to match
• You want a savory loaf that does not need anything on it
• You feel bloated after supermarket bread and miss real bread
• You want to support a Modesto baker instead of a factory
