Does toasting or microwaving sourdough bread kill the beneficial bacteria (probiotics)?
That's disappointing. Is there any way to preserve the probiotics while still toasting or warming up the bread?
Well, one way to do this is to slightly warm up the bread in the oven or on a stovetop. This can help preserve some of the probiotics while still giving you a warm and toasty piece of bread. You could also try using a lower heat setting on your toaster or microwave to avoid killing too many beneficial bacteria.
