13: DAY,10: Repeat DAY 5,stirring in 1/2 cup sugar,1 cup milk and 1 cup flour
14: THIS gives you enough starter to use freely in recipes and/or give away
0: DAY,1: Sprinkle yeast over warm water
1: Add 1 tablespoon of the sugar and let stand a few minutes until yeast is active and swelling
2: Combine remaining sugar,flour and milk in a 4 t0 6 quart glass,plastic or pottery bowl or container
3: (Do not use metal bowls or utensils as these may retard starter growth
4: )With a wooden spoon,stir in active yeast mixture
5: Cover loosely with a towel so Herman can breathe
6: Let stand in a warm draft free place overnight
7: DAYS,2,3,and 4:Stir daily with a wooden spoon
8: Keep covered
9: Keep cool
10: DAY,5: Stir in 1/2 cup sugar,1 cup milk and 1 cup flour
11: Let stand 24 hours
12: DAYS,6,7,8,and 9:Stir daily with a wooden spoon
15: Herman may be replenished as needed but can go no more than 5 days at room temperature between feedings
16: After feeding,wait 24 hours before using the renewed starter
17: DAILY stirring helps keep yeast mold from forming
18: Most directions specify that Herman not be refrigerated since cooler temperatures slow the growth and "souring" of the starter
19: It is,however,a safer course for busy cooks with fast growing startersHerman also is freezer-friendly and may be kept on ice between baking impulses if you get board
20: NOTE: If desired,substitute butter-milk for milk in starter for more flavor and less fat
21: If more starter is needed,additions may be doubled when 2 or more cups of starter are used
