Sourdough bread is made with yeast that comes in the form of a sourdough starter. It grows more slowly meaning that whilst the bread dough takes longer to rise, it develops a richer flavour.
You can make your own sourdough starter – although it does take a few days and bit of perseverance. Once your starter is established it can continue to provide you with the means for making bread for months and years to come!
The Doves Farm method is perhaps more straight forward, Whilst the Sourdough recipe is more precise. (I have always used tap water with no ill effect).
