Sift together flour, salt and baking powder. Using a pastry blender or fork, cut in butter until mixture resembles cornmeal. Mix together buttermilk and starter with a fork, stir mixture until a soft dough is formed that cleans the sides of the bowl. Turn out onto floured surface and knead gently for 30 seconds. Roll dough to form a circle 1/2 inch thick. Cut biscuits with round cutter. Place in lightly greased baking pan with sides touching. Brush tops with melted butter. Cover and let rest for 30 minutes.
