Shortcut Sourdough Starter

• 1 cup all-purpose flour, plus more for feeding starter
• 1/4 tsp. quick-rising yeast, such as Fleischmanns RapidRise

1. Combine flour and yeast in nonreactive bowl; stir in 1 cup warm (110F) water.
2. Cover bowl loosely, and set aside in temperate spot (72 to 74F) 12 hours.
3. Starter should get bubbly and smell yeasty.
4. Stir starter, then discard half.
5. Stir 1/2 cup flour and 1/2 cup lukewarm water into starter.
6. Cover.
7. Feed starter in this manner, discarding half of starter, and stirring in 1/2 cup flour and 1/2 cup lukewarm water every 12 hours for 72 hours.
8. Starter should be bubbly with pleasant sourdough aroma.
9. (If aroma is faint or you want more pronounced sourdough flavor, feed starter another day to develop more flavor.)
