Low Sodium Appetizers That Are Heart Healthy And Under 250 Calories

I use a 6-quart Dutch Oven which is just the right size for this recipe. There are some majorly *pricey* Dutch Ovens out there, but honestly any enameled cast iron one will work. We have this inexpensive 6-quart one and also a larger 7.5 quart to make my low sodium beef stew, and we love them!

And totally optional – but if you want the perfect little swirl design on top, I use this Banneton proofing bowl for the second rise. It’s inexpensive and the bamboo allows the dough to pull air in for the perfect crumb. Can you make bread without a proofing bowl?  Absolutely!  But I make this low sodium bread so often it was worth the small investment for me to get a banneton bowl… and plus perfect swirl design makes me feel like a pro baker.

A hearty delicious dinner idea that the whole family will love!Low Sodium Artisan Bread is the way to go when you need a good hearty bread to make appetizer plates or something that will sop up a good savory stew or gravy dish. I usually make my standard bread in a bread machine. While this makes good sandwich bread, once in a while you need something a little more robust but still low sodium. That’s where an easy no-knead artisan bread steps in that is still low sodium.

Favorite White Bread

The dough literally only takes 5-10 minutes to mix up but needs 8 to 24 hours to rise. I usually make it the night before I plan on baking it and it works out perfect with no worries. If you must use it after just eight hours, you should see lots of bubbles on the surface though this dough may not rise as much as you would think.

The sodium level in purchased artisan bread is really hard to nail down. Store-bought bread that I’ve looked at is 350mg of sodium per cup. Really, a cup of bread? How are we supposed to evaluate that?  Let us just say it is extremely high.

But not to worry about this Low Sodium Artisan Bread! It makes about an 8” round loaf so you can easily get 10 large slices at just 3mg per slice. And I’m being very generous and conservative here I think. This should leave plenty of room in your budget to add other flavorings if you desire.

The Best Low Sodium Or Salt Free Breads At The Grocery Store

This bread is pretty plain by itself and is best used while still a bit warm with an olive oil dip or whatever appetizer addition you plan on using with it. It is also great to use right away or later with a stew or any gravy sopping dish that good hearty bread is needed to take the abuse of being drenched in savory gravy.

The bread tends to harden up in a day or so and should be placed in a Ziploc bag and stored in the fridge. It does not do too well sitting on the counter for too long. 

But if you have leftovers and it does start to harden up – don’t throw it away! Put it in a heavy-duty freezer bag and keep it in the freezer. You can later thaw and cube it up for a stuffing mix. I often make this bread just for cubed stuffing as the store-bought is so high in sodium. Or it also makes the best bread crumbles for meatloaf, just give it a few pulses in a food processor and mix into your meatloaf. Is Plastic Wrap Required When Letting Dough Rise?

Healthy Kids Low Sodium Recipes

The short answer is no, plastic wrap is not required, but it should be covered. The main reason dough is covered during the rising stage is to avoid a dry crust from forming on the exposed surface. If not covered, the dough can dry out over the time required for it to rise. This crusting can cause overly
