00:00:00,270 --> 00:00:04,020
You decided that you would make some sort of bread, but you need to get some sort of starter.

2
00:00:04,350 --> 00:00:06,300
There's a few easy ways that you can get some.

3
00:00:06,480 --> 00:00:07,910
First off, you can make it at home.

4
00:00:07,920 --> 00:00:09,030
You can make it yourself.

5
00:00:09,450 --> 00:00:12,740
All you need is some white flour and whole wheat flour.

6
00:00:13,140 --> 00:00:19,410
And when you mix those together with water and allow time to go with the pass and you give it some warm

7
00:00:19,410 --> 00:00:23,100
environments, you will be able to create your own starter right at home.

8
00:00:23,610 --> 00:00:28,890
The downside is, is it will take about a week to two weeks for it to become strong enough for you to

9
00:00:28,890 --> 00:00:30,030
be able to use that starter.

10
00:00:30,330 --> 00:00:32,790
But of course, you can absolutely do it if this is your only option.

11
00:00:33,420 --> 00:00:35,000
Another option is that you can buy it.

12
00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:41,700
There's a lot of places online or maybe nearby where you can buy starter or maybe even get it for free

13
00:00:41,820 --> 00:00:42,750
here in the US.

14
00:00:42,780 --> 00:00:49,950
There's an organization called Kali's Friends where if you send them a prepaid postage envelope, they

15
00:00:49,950 --> 00:00:52,900
will actually send you some starter for free, which is fantastic.

16
00:00:52,950 --> 00:00:55,730
That's one of the starters I have in my fridge right now.

17
00:00:56,730 --> 00:01:01,350
Another way that you can get starter is if you have a friend who's already making sour dough, they'll

18
00:01:01,350 --> 00:01:03,720
be more than happy to share their starter with you.

19
00:01:03,720 --> 00:01:06,170
So you can go ahead and you can ask them to share some with you.
