Creating a Sourdough  Starter

Making a sourdough starter is not as hard as you may think.

Yes, it does take some time, though it won’t take long for you to understand the process and start making your own sourdough goodies.

What is Sourdough Discard?

Sourdough discard is the portion of the starter that is removed and discarded before feeding the rest of the starter in the jar. This discard can be at room temperature or it can come directly from the fridge, depending on where you have been storing your sourdough starter.

The texture of this discard is less bubbly, or possibly not bubbly at all, when you compare it to the very bubbly active starter.

It is given the name ‘discard’ as it is not active enough to use to make bread rise. When using it in recipes, baking soda and/or baking powder can be added to help boost the rising process.

What can Sourdough Discard be used for?

 Being extremely versatile, this discard can be used for a variety of delicious sweet and savoury recipes.
