About

When making sour dough bread, in order to get the true sour taste you need to create a mother dough. Either get a cup of starter from someone who has a batch going or, make or buy some unpasturized plain yogurt. Add some of this to your starter the first time. This will enhance the flavor of your sour dough bread.
