1 package active dry yeast
Because of their flavor and texture, sourdough bread, rolls and pancakes are well worth the trouble they take to make, but it is not possible to ensure predictable results. The success of sourdough starter, which gives the dough its character, depends on a proper blend of yeast and bacterial fermentation. This in turn depends to a large degree on the flour and the amount and types of bacteria in the air. In many parts of the United States and Canada, it is possible to buy sourdough starter from bakeries.
Starting a day ahead, place the flour in a large glass mixing bowl. Make a well in the center and pour in the yeast and water. With a large spoon, gradually stir the flour into the yeast and water, continuing to stir until the ingredients are well combined. Then, with a whisk or a rotary or electric beater, beat vigorously until the mixture is completely smooth. Drape with a kitchen towel and set aside in a warm, draft-free spot (such as an unlighted oven) for 24 hours. If at the end of this time the starter has not bubbled, it must be discarded.
After you have used as much of the starter as you need, transfer the remaining starter to a glass jar or crock equipped with a tight-fitting lid. Covered and refrigerated, it can be stored for several weeks. If used regularly, it may keep indefinitely.
