Dissolve the yeast in the warm water in a small bowl, this process is important to activate the fermentation activity. If the water is too cold, the yeast may take too long to activate; too hot, and it will kill the bacteria. Let stand until the mixture foams on top, about 5 minutes, then gradually pour it in the flours mixture.
