SOURDOUGH STARTER

Yield : Approximately 4 cups Difficulty: (one chocolate kiss, or easy)
Prepartion: 10 minutes Allow at least 4 days for the starter to
ferment before using. “Day 1: 1. In a medium bowl, stir together 2
cups of the flour and yeast. Make a well in the middle of the
flour/yeast mixture and whisk in the hot water. Continue stirring
until the mixture is blended but not completely smooth. It is not
necessary to smooth out all the lumps; they will dissolve as the
mixture start to ferment. Cover the bowl with a clean towel and let
the mixture sit at room temperature. Over the next 24 hours the
mixture will rise, become very bubbly and then start to recede.

“Days 2 and 3: 2. Stir the mixture twice, once in the morning and
once in the evening to invigorate the yeast and to expel the alcohol.
Towards the end of the second day the mixture will start to thin and
the surface of the starter will be covered with lots of tiny air
bubbles.
