Sourdough has a low GI thanks to the relatively long fermentation process of its natural yeast. The longer the fermentation (usually 1-2 days at 5°C), the more carbohydrates the yeast breaks down, naturally reducing the amount the body absorbs. It's "what the season does and what time takes on," as I read in a piece by writer Kim Ae-ran.
But as the saying goes, nothing beats too much of anything — eat a lot and it's all pointless anyway. So just one piece for breakfast~😃🫓

*GI (Glycemic Index) measures how much blood sugar rises after eating carbohydrates. Eating high-GI foods causes blood sugar to spike sharply, triggering excess insulin release and leading to fat storage. Repeated over time, this can lead to obesity, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease.
1. Slice the sourdough, heat olive oil in a pan, and toast until crisp.
2. Spread a generous amount of ricotta cheese on the sourdough and top with basil pesto. Finish with pink peppercorn~
