Ingredients
  • 1 cup Unbleached Bread Flour
  • 1 cup Distilled Water

Directions
  1. Stir together water and flour
  2. 24 hours later pour half your starter down the sink, add a cup of water & another cup of flour.
  3. Leave your starter in a dark cool place.
  4. Repeat once a day for two months.

  6. When time and your daily flour and water feeding has done it’s work you can put your starter in the fridge and forget about it between bread making. You cannot kill this stuff!
