I’ve been experimenting recently with sourdough as you all may have noticed. I had some discard yesterday and came up with this pizza crust. It is epic.
I might alter it the next time i make it, but for now these are the measurements i used. I’m still a newbie sourdougher so bare with me.
UPDATE: I made this dough with 100g active sourdough starter and skipped the yeast. Worked perfectly.

Ingredients
- 100 g sourdough starter discard
- 1 tsp instant yeast
- 220 g warm water
- 320 g bread flour or all purpose flour
- 8 g salt
- 1 tbsp fine semolina
Instructions
- Add all the ingredients in a bowl and mix until fully incorporated
- Knead your dough by hand or stand mixer for 7-10 mins, it will be sticky at first but keep kneading with wet hands
- Slightly oil your bowl and put the dough inside, cover with plastic wrap and let it sit in the fridge for a minimum of 8hrs
- Once it has doubled, divide the dough in 2 and let it rest covered for another 10 mins
- Brush your pan with olive oil, sprinkle with some semolina
- Do not roll the dough, gently pull it with your hands onto a pizza pan or whatever pan you’re using and let it rest for another 5 min
- Add the sauce and whatever topping you want. Bake for 10 mins in a preheated oven (the maximum your oven gets, mine goes up to 270C)
- Remove it, add your cheese and bake for another 7-10 mins
Will it make a big difference if I don’t put Sourdough starter discard ?
I have a regular pizza recipe in my highlights on instagram

Hello
I would like to know if i can use the old discards that didn’t complete the 14 days.
I’m making my own starter so i don’t have a ready one.
Thank you
