How can I make a sourdough starter?
assistant
To make a sourdough starter, you'll need to mix equal parts of warm water and flour. Stir it together until the mixture forms a thick paste. Let the paste sit for 12-24 hours at room temperature. After that time, add equal parts of fresh flour and water and stir again. Continue this process every day for 3-4 days. The starter will start to rise as it gets more acidic from the fermentation process. Once it starts to bubble and froth, your sourdough starter is ready to use.
