Washing a starter ala Ed Wood..........stir vigorously, dump all except 1
cup,fill jar with warm water stirring thoroughly. dump all except 1cup and feed
with 1 cup of flour and 3/4 cup warm water, stir again and proof at 85 degrees
for 6 to 12 hours. If it doesn't become active you may have to repeat, but it
will if you keep doing it. I had one go bad and had to do this 4 of 5 times,
but it did work!
Next I looked for a flour sale!
