Here's how I wake up my little yeastie friends:
- Place 1 tsp sugar in a measuring cup
- Run hot water for a couple minutes to be sure to get the hot stuff. I don't take temp readings anymore but it is over 100 from the tap.
- Fill measuring cup with 1 cup hot water
- Stir until sugar is dissolved
- Add 1/4 tsp yeast (usually try to do this right after stirring to keep the water moving)
- Let sit for 15 minutes
That's it.
