1 teaspoon yeast

3/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese 3 ounces

*Sourdough Starter: Dissolve 2 1/2 teaspoons yeast in 1/2 cup warm water(105-115 deg). Stir in 2 cups warm water, 2 cups flour and 1 tbsp sugar or honey. Beat till smooth. Cover bowl with cheesecloth. Let stand at room temp for 5 to 10 days or until it has a fermented aroma: stir it 2 or 3 times a day. Transfer Starter to a jar, cover with cheesecloth, and refrigerate. Do not cover tightly with a metal lid. To use: bring desired amount to room temp. For each cup of starter used replenish remaining starter by stirring in 3/4 cup flour, 3/4 cup water, and 1 teaspoon sugar or honey. Cover and let mixture stand at room temp for 1 day or until bubbly. Refregerate starter for later use. If starter isn't used within 10 days, stir in 1 teaspoon sugar or honey. Repeat every 10 days unless starter is replenished.
