Ingredients

  • 250g/ 8oz flour
  • 120g/ 4oz sugar
  • 480ml/ 18fl.oz milk

Directions

Combine all ingredients, mixing until smooth. in a non-metal container. Glass or earthenware is best but plastic will do.
Cover and leave in a warm place for 3-4 days such as beside the stove, or on top of the fridge near haet from motor. Temperature and humidity do affec the starter and so test it after 2 days for "life". You will have no doubts if it is alive. The mixture will be bubbly and have a strong , sour smell.

I also have bread recipes for using the starter if you want them. Good luck.
