Always found the discarding of leaven when you feed the starter a bit of a waste, especially now, so wanted to know if there were recipes which used it rather than me throwing it away, and what do you know there are..

Was going to ask in here but found this after a google search..

Think I’ll make some crumpets next time round..

At the moment I am baking most days, so don't waste much. But I would like to try this recipe at some point where you save the discarded starter and use it in place of levain.

Interesting. Never heard of the scalding method. Will have to try it when I’ve got some rye!

Yeah there’s only 3 of us and the non adult’s not yet two. So baking more than a loaf a week is still a bit of a stretch, especially as the missus is using the bread maker for a multi seed loaf she likes..
