Equipment Needed:
Quart Jar (or any class jar)
Breathable lid such as cheesecloth or coffee filter
Spoon
Flour -Unbleached Organic Preferred
Filtered Water (preferred)

 

Flour Types:
Organic whenever possible
All should be unbleached!
All-purpose flour
Bread flour
Whole Wheat
Fresh Ground hard Wheat
Gluten Free: Brown Rice

Notes: Save the discard each day in a glass container in the fridge and use for “discard recipes” like Muffins, Pancakes, Waffles, and More! Also do NOT put a solid lid on your starter, the flour and water mix needs to grab wild yeast from the air in order to grow.
Do NOT put discard down your drain, either save or dispose.
