Sure, you could be reckless and throw it out (it's called "discard," after all). But why not use your starter to make some other delicious carby concoction? Many sourdough-discard recipes fall into two camps: pancakes and crackers. In contrast to the painstaking process of baking a proper loaf, these discard recipes are meant to be quick, simple, and satisfying. Since you’re not relying on slow leavening, the starter is primarily there for its distinctive sour flavor. Here’s one more idea to add to your sourdough-discard recipe card file: a funky take on thin, savory scallion pancakes that requires just a few staple ingredients. These pancakes are crepe-like, crispy on the edges and tender toward the center. They're great for wraps, as a side for roast chicken, or just as a quick snack. More savory pancake stovetop recipes |

Simple pasta that lets summertime tomatoes shine
No images? Click here Sicilian-Style Spaghetti Alla CarrettieraFresh tomato, basil, olive oil, garlic, red pepper flakes, and breadcrumbs are all you need to whip up this rapid, wonderfully fresh Sicilian pasta sauce. Because this sauce is heated only by the pasta and its cooking water, it retains all of its fresh tomato and basil flavor, allowing the season's best produce to shine. It also couldn't be quicker or easier to make: Peel and roughly purée some tomatoes, mix them with raw minced garlic, chopped basil, olive oil, and red pepper flakes, and then toss with cooked spaghetti and some of its starchy water as soon as it's cooked. Some toasted breadcrumbs, meanwhile, help thicken and emulsify the sauce. More tomato sauce recipes |
