What is Sourdough Discard?

Sourdough discard is a portion of unfed starter that is discarded before you proceed to feed your starter.

It is important to dispose of a small portion of your sourdough starter before each feed, as it ensures that your starter doesn’t become incredibly acidic.

What to do With Discard Sourdough Starter?

After you’ve discarded bits of your sourdough starter for 7 days before every feed, you can use discard in any recipe that requires flour and a type of liquid.

Essentially, discarded sourdough is half flour and half water, which means that it works best when added to cookies, quick breads and cakes. You’ll find that it is incredibly fun to experiment with your sourdough discard in many of your favourite recipes, exploring new flavours and textures, for you to enjoy.

Sourdough Discard vs Sourdough Starter

The main difference between discarded sourdough and a sourdough starter is that the discard remains unfed.

Technically, sourdough discard is the starter. However if you intend to use it in recipes, then you’ll need to add an additional leavening agent like baking soda, or yeast, to ensure that the dough or cake rises.
