To make a sourdough starter, you will need flour and water. Begin by mixing equal parts of each ingredient in a bowl or container. Make sure the mixture is well mixed and then cover it with a lid or plastic wrap. Allow the mixture to rest for 12-24 hours at room temperature. After that time, you can add additional flour and water to the mixture as needed. You should feed your starter once a day by adding 1/4 cup of water and 1/2 cup of flour. Your starter will begin to bubble and rise within 24 hours after being fed. Continue feeding and maintaining your sourdough starter until you are happy with its flavor and texture.
