I want to learn more about how to make a sourdough starter.

Sourdough starters are made by combining flour and water in equal parts, then allowing it to ferment for several days or weeks. The process of making the starter is simple but time-consuming. You will need to start with some basic ingredients such as bread flour and water, mix them together, and allow the mixture to rest for 12-24 hours before adding additional flour and water. After that, you can begin feeding your starter every day with an equal amount of fresh flour and water. Once you have enough active starter, you can use it to make your own sourdough breads, pancakes, pizza crust, or other recipes.
