Sourdough Starter #4

Ingredients:
Unbleached flour
Lukewarm potato water

Directions:
Boil some potatoes for dinner, save the potato water, and use it lukewarm with enough unbleached flour to make a thick batter, without yeast. This is a good method for making starter in camp where no yeast is available. This is also how most farm wives made it in the old days. Let stand a day or so, or until it smells right.
