Beyond the Starter: Creative Cooking with Sourdough Discard at Fischer & Wieser Culinary Adventure Cooking School

Description

If you've ever baked sourdough bread, you've probably wondered what to do with all that extra starter. Instead of tossing it in the trash, discover how sourdough discard can become one of the most versatile ingredients in your kitchen. Sourdough discard is the portion of your sourdough starter that's removed before feeding it fresh flour and water. While it may not have enough strength to naturally leaven a loaf of bread, it still contains incredible flavor and adds tenderness, complexity, and richness to countless recipes. In this hands-on class, you'll learn how to confidently incorporate discard into both savory and sweet dishes while reducing waste and getting the most from every batch of starter.
