I was using active dry yeast, with cold tap water. It sat around 15 hours, with nothing.

I'll try again tonight with room temperature water, more yeast and regular flour. I'll test the yeast first too before I waste more flour.

Also, should I use iodized salt or kosher? I don't think we even have any iodized in the place.

Keep in mind that Kosher salt is less dense than table salt, so you may want to add more kosher if the recipe calls for table. Also, kosher doesn't dissolve as easily into doughs because of the larger crystals, so regular table salt may actually be better unless you mix it into some water first.

I think that it's 1.5 units kosher : 1 unit table salt.
