Recipe - Plain Sourdough Starter

2 cup Flour, unbleached
;Water, to make thick batter

Mix flour and water to make a thick batter. Let stand uncovered for four
or five days, or until it begins working. This basic recipe requires a
carefully scalded container.

VARIATION: Use milk instead of water to make the recipe.

NOTE:

All containers for starters not using yeast must be carefully scalded
before use. If you are careless or do not scald them the starter will
fail.
