Starters & Discards
Are you supposed to discard half of your refrigerated starter, then fee the remaining 1/2 cup of water and 1 cup of flour? If so, then you leave it out for about 12 hours and refrigerate it until you need to feed it again? Regqrding the discard, can this be used in a recipe? If so, does this also have to be fed? That's what's confusing to me. There's only me and hubby in our house, so I won't be making a lot of bread but want to know what I'm supposed to do use for the recipes? This is still new to me, and for some reason I am not understanding this thoroughly. Hope someone can help. Thank you.
