      SOURDOUGH PANCAKES
 
2 1/2 C. flour       1 t. salt
2 C. warm water      1 t. soda
1/2 t. dry yeast     1 T. sugar
2 eggs               2 T. melted shortening, bacon
                           grease, or oil
The night before:
1. Mix flour, water, and yeast in a 2 qt. bowl.
2. Cover and place in a moderately warm place overnight.
 
      Note: Instead of setting the sourdough up the night before, I
      have used a teaspoon of yeast instead of a half teaspoon, covered
      the bowl, and microwaved at level 1 for 15 minutes, and let stand
      for 15 while I'm getting the rest of the ingredients out.

The next morning:  3. If you wish to start a true sourdough, remove a
half cup of the starter and refrigerate in a covered jar.  Use this
starter next time instead of the yeast.  4. Otherwise, add the rest of
the ingredients (after which it is too late to take a starter), cook,
and enjoy.
