Instructions
Step 1
Dissolve yeast in 1/2 cup of the water. Stir in
remaining 2 cups water, the flour, and sugar or
honey. Beat till smooth. Cover with cheese-
cloth. Let stand at room temperature for 5 to
10 days or till bubbly; stir 2 or 3 times each
day. (Fermentation time 'depends upon room
temperature. A warmer room hastens the fer-
mentation process.)

and cover with cheesecloth; refrigerate. Do not
cover jar tightly with a metal lid. To use Starter,
bring desired amount to room temperature. To
replenish Starter after using, stir %4 cup all-pur-
pose flour, %4 cup water, and 1 teaspoon sugar
or honey into remaining amount. Cover; let
stand at room temperature at least 1 day or till
bubbly. Refrigerate for later use
If Starter isn't used within 10 days, stir in 1
teaspoon sugar or honey. Repeat every 10
days until used.
