If you love making bread, you know that there is nothing better than making your own sourdough starter, and knowing that the bread that comes out of the oven is fantastic because of all the work you've put into your starter.
But most of us don't have time to bake fresh bread every day. After all the hard work you've put into feeding and caring for your sourdough starter, it seems a waste to throw away the discard every day.
Good thing that there are more recipes for your sourdough starter discard out there than bread. Check out the recipes below to find inspiration in some creative ways to use your discard instead of throwing it away!
