Let stand the mixture warm spot for 2 days until ferment. This depends on the conditions of your house. The dough smelled an unpleasant odor that is a sign of growing a good bacteria not harmful. At the end of the 2nd day add cold water.  On the 3rd day, you can pour out the water.  Remove the top of the water and the rest save it by container because you can use it later. Add 2 cup of water in a saucepan and mix 1/4 cup of teff flour and turn on the stove stir continuously until become smooth with a wooden stirrer,  use medium heat.
