Sourdough Starter

1. 1

   Dissolve yeast in warm water, then mix all ingredients in a 1-gallon crock or other nonmetallic container.

2. 2

   Cover with a close fitting lid and let starter rise until light and bubbly on top (12 hours in warm weather, longer in cool weather). Never let starter get cold.

3. 3

   After each time you use starter, add 1 cup warm water, 2 teaspoons sugar and enough flour to return the starter to its original consistency.

4. 4

   Add more potato as food for the yeast (when original potato is used up), but don't add yeast.
