Friendship Starter

Ingredients

1 pkt Active Dry Yeast

1/2 cup Warm Water Or Milk, *Note

1 cup Milk

1 cup Flour

1 cup Granulated Sugar

Preparation

*NOTE: If you use milk, add 1/2 C milk, 1 C flour and 1 C granulated sugar.

Set in a warmish place, like near the stove, and stir once daily for 5-10 days. This makes about 3 cups of starter. Most recipies for friendship bread that I've seen call for one cup of starter to start out with, so as tradition dictates I would keep a cup of starter for myself and give the other two cups to two friends with the recipie.
