Gluten Free Sourdough Starter


From red star yeast. I have not tried this, but with the interest in gluten-free recipes, i thought this would be of interest. The red star yeast people say you must use active dry yeast - instant yeast apparently does not work in gluten-free recipes. They state that this will get tangier as it gets older.

Steps


Combine all ingredients in a 4-cup container.
It will be thick.
Cover loosely with plastic wrap or foil and let stand for one to three days in a warm place , stirring 2 or 3 times daily.
The starter will rise and fall during the fermentation process.
When it is developed it will be bubbly and may have developed a layer of hooch - a liquid on top of the starter , which can be stirred back in.
Use or refrigerate.
Replenishing: always have at least one cup of starter left over.
Add 1 cup water and 1 1 / 2 cup white rice flour.
Cover loosely and let stand in a warm place for 12 hours.
Use or refrigerate.
