My friend gave up eating bread in America because even the organic local bakery-sourced bakery had shocking levels of sugar and just tasted like cake. Like fuck some places added sugar to their sourdough!
Dude you know I starting baking bread and all the resources online are written for and by Americans so I was so confused when I couldn't find unbleached flour in the UK. It turns out that the reason why is that all flour in the UK in unbleached, because it is illegal to bleach it here. Apparently that is also why we cannot easily get products like Twinkies and Hot Cheetos, because they are made with bleached materials, they aren't fit for the UK market.
All the instructions for making sourdough also say to use filtered water, like from a bottle. Turns out the reason for this is that American tap water is so heavily bleached that it will kill the yeast. Our water is chlorinated too but like, to an acceptable level.
