Amish starter

Ingredients

• 1 ( 7 g [O.25 oz]) package active dry yeast.
• 1/4 cup warm water
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 cup white sugar
• 1 cup milk

Instructions

Follow carefully!

Day 1: Add the yeast to the warm water. In a non metallic bowl, combine the flour and sugar, before slowly adding the milk. Add the yeast and mix well. Cover with a t-towel and leave at room temperature until bubbly. When you see the mix getting all bubbly, cover with cling film and pop it in the fridge.

Days 1, 2,3 and 4: Just a good daily stir, with a non metallic spoon, is required. Back in the fridge and leave.

Day 5: This is the moment you have been waiting for. You can now remove 2 cups of starter to use in your own bread recipe (you can even freeze the amish friendship bread starter). Then you must feed the remaining starter with 1 cup flour, 1 cup sugar, and 1 cup milk. Just allow this to sit for a while at room temperature and then it's back in the fridge.

Days 6, 7, 8, 9: As per days 1,2,3 and 4... just a good old stir up with a non metallic spoon.

Day 10: Feeding time again! Follow instructions as per day 5.
