Method (preview)

1. 1

   Cover a dish or pan with plastic wrap or waxed paper to prevent sticking. After you have fed your starter and let it get active e, pour some onto the covered dish. The thicker the layer the longer it will take to dry. I use a broiler pan and pour it 1/4 inch deep as I use a lot of it. It takes nearly a week to harden.

2. 2

   Set aside at room temperature until it gets brittle - may be a few days. Break into small pieces and grind in a blender, coffee grinder or food processor. There you are. It will keep a long time. The yeast has sporated and will stay that way for years. At one time it was used to chink the walls of cabins an d some of that stuff has been reactivated.
