You are making the Amish Friendship bread you forgot to add the ingredients on day 6 Will this mess up the recipe?

Yes, you can use it the next day. A sourdough starter is used to make this bread. Provided that you look after your sourdough starter, feed it, and keep it growing in the conditions it likes, then there is no reason why this one starter can not be used again and again and again. Some people have starters they made themselves, and they are over 15 years old. With a sourdough starter, the flavour can change over time, reflecting the yeasts that are in your home. If your started develops a taste you don't like then you may want to create a new starter. http://www.sourdoughhome.com/startingastarter.html - will give you more information on how to create a sourdough starter.

The term sourdough bread refers to bread made through the leavening process caused by naturally occurring lactobacilli and yeasts. It is the way bread was made to rise for thousands of years.

There is no specific origin which can be identified for bread (and all bread was sourdough bread a thousand years ago) but one could guess that the earliest domestication of grains in the Mediterranean region was followed within a few thousand years by bread.

For bread baking, natural yeast is called Sourdough. You make it as follows: mix half a cup of water and half a cup of flour into a dough. Put the dough in a jar on the counter.
