WHAT IS WATER ROUX?
A popular method of making soft bread is to use "湯種 (Yudane)" which in English translates to "water roux." It refers to a technique in bread-making where a portion of flour is cooked with water to create a thick paste, which is then used to enhance the texture and moisture of the final baked product. This method is commonly used in making soft breads, such as Japanese milk bread.
WHAT IS SOURDOUGH BREAD?
Sourdough bread making traces back to the ancient art of artisan bread making that uses 3 basic ingredients - flour + water + salt and then time for fermentation. All other additive/unnatural ingredients that commercially produced bread include are eliminated.
Sourdough bread is healthy, gentle to the digestive system, and delicious; and the crumb-like texture gives a satisfying feeling in your palette.
