Sourdough Starter

Back in the old mining days a good starter was a prized possession. Today we use a commercial yeast in the starter with excellent results.
Here is what it takes:

1 pkg active dry yeast
1-1/2 cups flour
1 tbl spoon of sugar
1/4 cup of lukewarm water
2 cups warm water

Using a quart jar, dissolve the yeast in a 1/4 cup of warm water. Allow to stand 4 or 5 minutes then stir in the rest of the water, sugar and flour. Cover with a cloth and leave overnight at room temperature. Stir if mixture rises to the top. Next morning replace jar lid and put in refrigerator. It's now ready for use.


Sourdough Pancakes

These pancakes take a bit more work then ordinary ones but it is worth it in the morning.

Mix together the night before:

2 cups flour
2 cups milk
1 cup starter mix

Let mixture stand overnight at room temperature, then next morning when your ready to bake, add:
2 eggs beaten

Stir batter until mixed well.
Pour onto griddle as needed. Makes about 16 pancakes.
