I just saw something on the Townsends youtube channel about bread baking in the remote areas of the 1800's using dried unbaked dough from a previous sourdough batch as the yeast starter. The piece he used was 2 years old and looked like a very dry cookie. He broke it into small pieces easily, I would think it could resemble flour if broken down enough. Perhaps this is "yeast flour"?
