From Pathfinder Wiki
Sourdough has a rich and fascinating history that dates back thousands of years. The earliest evidence of sourdough bread comes from ancient Egypt around 1500 BCE. It is believed that the Egyptians discovered the process of fermentation by accident when wild yeast spores from the air settled into a mixture of flour and water, causing it to rise. This discovery revolutionised baking, leading to the creation of leavened bread, which was lighter and more palatable than the dense, unleavened bread that had been common until then.
