🧂 Ingredients

1 First, use the measuring cup and spoons to measure out all of the ingredients.
2 Then, mix the warm water, sugar, and yeast together in a glass mixing bowl.
3 Continue mixing until the ingredients are completely combined.
4 Then, cover the glass bowl, sit it in a warm place, and wait for 10-15 minutes.

I like to cover the bowl with some plastic wrap or a disposable shower cap.
5 Finally, check the yeast to see if it’s still good. The mixture needs to be
bubbly and smell like yeast.
