Special Precautions and Tips:

• If you don't have a sourdough starter, you can purchase one online or make your own.
• Make sure the water is warm, but not hot, as this can kill the yeast in the sourdough starter.
• Let the dough rise in a warm place, such as a turned-off oven with the light on.
• If the dough is too sticky to handle, add more flour as needed.
