How to make bread from scratch
Combine honey, water, flour, and yeast in a straight-sided container.
This mixture is the first half of what will be used to leaven the bread. If you took the yeast from a yeast packet, be sure to save the rest for the second batch of leavening ingredients.

OPTIONS:
-If you'd rather not refrigerate the bread once you've got it in the refrigerator, simply scoop out the mixture and transfer it to a refrigerator bag. Mix in the flour, baking powder, and salt..
-The amount of water will depend on the thickness of the bread in our recipe. At times of formal baking, half of the water is required for drying (after which bread/flour mixture goes into your resealable container)..
-Add yeast to the other 1/2 gallon of water mixture. Use a fork to mix the mixture vigorously..
-Cover loosely and refrigerate for 8 to 12 hours (overnight is best). By putting the yeasty mixture into the refrigerator, you slow down the fermentation process..
The answer is:
Cover loosely and refrigerate for 8 to 12 hours (overnight is best). By putting the yeasty mixture into the refrigerator, you slow down the fermentation process.
