Sourdough starter: (Sourdough Culture)

• 2 cups flour
• 1 cup water
• 1 cup cooled potato water (this really gets things going)
• 1 package bread yeast

Mix well and let stand in a warm area until there are no more signs of fermentation. (The solution will separate and no more bubbles are present.) Stir well, remove 1 cup of the contents and stir in another cup of flour or flour mix and a cup of water. Do not use "self-rising" flour!

Initially, the new starter is ready to use after 2-3 days, but it will not have that typical sourdough flavor until it has acquired some weeks or months of age.
