How To Make A Sourdough Starter

Directions

1. 1
   In a large bowl, add one cup of flour, one package of active dry yeast, and one cup of water.
2. 2
   Mix until completely combined. Cover it with a towel and place it in a warm spot. An oven with a light on is the perfect place to keep it warm.
3. 3
   Allow to sit for 24 hours.
4. 4
   Take it out of warm place.
5. 5
   Remove about 1/2 cup of starter and toss it out. Re-feed starter with 1/2 cup water and 1/2 cup flour and mix thoroughly. Cover and place in warm spot.
6. 6
   Allow to sit for 24 hours (48 hours total) and now you have an active sourdough starter.
