First and most importantly, we need our sourdough starter. This starter can be something you can get from someone else who has already been making sourdough, but it is also supposed to be the fun fermenting aspect of the whole process! This sourdough starter (also known as "stalking the wild yeast," is the key fermentation aspect of this bread.
So this is how we begin:
Using either a glass or stainless steel bowl (or even a glass jar as I did), mix together 2 cups of unbleached organic flour and 1+1/2 cups of purified water.
Cover the bowel or jar with a cheese cloth and wait....
The waiting process is tough, but it takes about 4-5 days for this fermentation to really take place. So waiting is actually very important!
Also, make sure to stir this mixture a couple times a day.
