2 c. flour
2 c. warm water (110-115 degrees)
1 Tbs. sugar

Soften yeast in 1/2 c. warm water. Stir in flour, 2 c. warm water, and sugar. Beat till smooth. Cover with cheesecloth; let stand at room temperature till bubbly, 5 to 10 days, stirring 2 or 3 times a day. (Fermentation time depends on room temperature; a warmer room will hasten the process.) Store starter, covered, in the refrigerator. To use, bring desired amount to room temperature.
TO KEEP STARTER GOING: After using some Starter, stir 3/4 c. flour, 3/4 c. water, and 1 tsp. sugar into remaining Starter.
