88. Sourdough Basics, Favorite Discard Recipes, and More for the Complete Beginner

Sourdough is one of those things that can seem super complicated from the outside but is actually fairly simple once you understand the basics. If you’ve been curious about starting sourdough but aren’t sure where to begin, this episode is for you. We are going to cover the foundational steps of sourdough so you can feel confident getting started, talk about what to do with your discard so nothing goes to waste, and I’m going to share a few easy recipes to try right away. So whether you’ve never fed a starter before or you’ve dabbled a little and want to stick with it, this episode is going to give you the tools and encouragement you need to start baking sourdough from scratch. I hope this episode encourages you to take that first step into sourdough, or maybe to keep going if you’ve been feeling stuck or discouraged. Remember, it doesn’t have to be perfect, and you don’t have to know everything before you start.
