class=\"tasty-recipes-instructions\">\n<div data-tasty-recipes-customization=\"body-color.color\">\n<ol>\n<li id=\"instruction-step-1\">Grab a large mixing bowl and measure out the sourdough starter, water, and honey (as well as yeast if you wish to use it). Stir the ingredients together until the sourdough starter and honey have dissolved in the water.<\/li>\n<li id=\"instruction-step-2\">Next add oil, flour, and salt into the bowl, gently stirring this together with a dough whisk or knife. Cover with a plastic wrap and let the dough sit for 30 minutes.<\/li>\n<li id=\"instruction-step-3\">Tip the dough out onto a floured surface and knead it using your hands. With the right amount of kneading your dough will emerge beautifully soft and silky. This should take about 10 minutes.<\/li>\n<li id=\"instruction-step-4\">Once the dough is nice and silky, plop it into a warm bowl (you can warm your bowl with warm water and then dry it, this helps speed up the rising). Cover the bowl with a plastic cover and leave the dough to rise until it has doubled.<\/li>\n<li id=\"instruction-step-5\">Once the dough has doubled in size, separate the dough into smaller balls, so they\u2019re ready to be rolled out. Measure out 200g per pizza. Leave the balls on the counter top, and cover them with a tea towel, for about 30 minutes.<\/li>\n<li id=\"instruction-step-6\">Once you\u2019re ready to make the pizza bases, use your fingers to press the dough into a pizza round. To stretch the dough, pick it up and move your hands around the edges, allowing the doughs wright to stretch it into a round. Try to avoid using a rolling pin during this process, if you wish to provide your dough with a good structure once baked.<\/li>\n<li id=\"instruction-step-7\">Place your pizza dough on to pizza peels, ready for your toppings<\/li>\n<li id=\"instruction-step-8\">Once you\u2019re ready to bake, pre-heat the oven to 450 degrees F and ensure that its hot.<\/li>\n<li id=\"instruction-step-9\">Place your pizzas into the hot oven for about 15 minutes, till the toppings are cooked with a crisp bottom. The pizza bases are especially great when baked in a wood fire or gas pizza oven.<\/li>\n<\/ol><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"tasty-recipes-other-details\" data-tasty-recipes-customization=\"secondary-color.background-color\">\n<ul>\n<li class=\"author\"><span class=\"tasty-recipes-label\" data-tasty-recipes-customization=\"detail-label-color.color\">Author:<\/span> <span data-tasty-recipes-customization=\"detail-value-color.color\" class=\"tasty-recipes-author-name\">Natasha Krajnc<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"prep-time\"><span class=\"tasty-recipes-label\" data-tasty-recipes-customization=\"detail-label-color.color\"><svg viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" class=\"detail-icon\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><use xlink:href=\"#tasty-recipes-icon-clock\"\/><\/svg>Prep Time:<\/span> <span data-tasty-recipes-customization=\"detail-value-color.color\" class=\"tasty-recipes-prep-time\">1 hr 40 mins<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"cook-time\"><span class=\"tasty-recipes-label\" data-tasty-recipes-customization=\"detail-label-color.color\"><svg viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" class=\"detail-icon\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><use xlink:href=\"#tasty-recipes-icon-clock\"\/><\/svg>Cook Time:<\/span> <span data-tasty-recipes-customization=\"detail-value-color.color\" class=\"tasty-recipes-cook-time\">15 mins<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"category\"><span class=\"tasty-recipes-label\" data-tasty-recipes-customization=\"detail-label-color.color\"><svg viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" class=\"detail-icon\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><use xlink:href=\"#tasty-recipes-icon-folder\"\/><\/svg>Category:<\/span> <span data-tasty-recipes-customization=\"detail-value-color.color\" class=\"tasty-recipes-category\">bread<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"what-is-sourdough-discard\">What is Sourdough Discard?<\/h2>\n<p>Much like the phrase suggests, sourdough discard is a small portion of sourdough starter that is removed. This procedure is conducted prior to feeding it by adding fresh flour and water.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"using-sourdough-discard-in-pizza-dough\">Using Sourdough Discard in Pizza Dough<\/h2>\n<p>This pizza dough recipe is made using sourdough starter discard. But before we get into it, I believe it would be wise to explain why and how you should use your discard in this specific recipe. That way, you achieve a delicious outcome! <\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed aligncenter is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\">\n<p>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Sourdough Pizza Using Discard and Yeast II Sourdough Discard Recipe\" width=\"840\" height=\"473\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/SBFp802xWMY?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<p>The texture, and flavour of your pizza dough, will rely on the strength of your sourdough starter. So to outline how you <em>could<\/em> use your sourdough discard in this pizza dough recipe, would be through the following scenarios:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>If you happen to have an <strong>active starter that is 2 weeks old<\/strong>, and you have 200g of discard in a <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mydailysourdoughbread.com\/sourdough-starter-container\/\">glass jar<\/a><\/strong> resting in the fridge from a previous week of feeding your starter. You can use 200g of this sourdough discard with an additional 4g of instant yeast in your dough.<\/li>\n<li>If your <strong>starter is 6 months old<\/strong>, and you haven\u2019t fed it for a week, but intend to use it to make some pizza.

You can pretty much throw all your ingredients into a bowl and you\u2019re halfway through making it!<\/p>\n<p>Of course you can speed up the process with a little commercial yeast, but it isn\u2019t essential. <\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s how to make sourdough discard pizza dough:<\/p>\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Grab a large mixing bowl and measure out the sourdough starter, water, and honey (as well as yeast if you wish to use it). Stir the ingredients together until the sourdough starter and honey have dissolved in the water. <\/li>\n<li>Next add oil, flour, and salt into the bowl, gently stirring this together with a dough whisk or knife. Cover with a plastic wrap and let the dough sit for 30 minutes. <\/li>\n<li>Tip the dough out onto a floured surface and knead it using your hands. With the right amount of kneading your dough will emerge beautifully soft and silky. This should take about 10 minutes.<\/li>\n<li>Once the dough is nice and silky, plop it into a warm bowl (you can warm your bowl with warm water and then dry it, this helps speed up the rising). Cover the bowl with a plastic cover and leave the dough to rise until it has doubled. <\/li>\n<li>Once the dough has doubled in size, separate the dough into smaller balls, so they\u2019re ready to be rolled out. Measure out 200g per pizza. Leave the balls on the counter top, and cover them with a tea towel, for about 30 minutes. <\/li>\n<li>Once you\u2019re ready to make the pizza bases, use your fingers to press the dough into a pizza round. To stretch the dough, pick it up and move your hands around the edges, allowing the doughs wright to stretch it into a round. Try to avoid using a rolling pin during this process, if you wish to provide your dough with a good structure once baked. <\/li>\n<li>Place your pizza dough on to pizza peels, ready for your toppings<\/li>\n<li>Once you\u2019re ready to bake, pre-heat the oven to 450 degrees and ensure that its hot. <\/li>\n<li>Place your pizzas into the hot oven for about 15 minutes, till the toppings are cooked with a crisp bottom. The pizza bases are especially great when baked in a wood fire or gas pizza oven. <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"kneading-sourdough-pizza-dough\">Kneading Sourdough Pizza Dough<\/h3>\n<p>Sourdough pizza discard dough can be made using your hands or with the help of a stand mixer. Kneading with your hands is quite easy, you\u2019ll have to keep kneading until the dough becomes soft and silky. <\/p>\n<p>Refrain from the urge of needing to add flour to your work surface. Instead use a dough scraper to bring the dough together. <\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"cooking-sourdough-pizza\">Cooking Sourdough Pizza<\/h3>\n<p>The general rule for cooking pizza is the higher the temperature of the oven, the better your pizza will be. A regular oven doesn\u2019t become that hot, so a pizza oven will be the better alternative in cooking the perfect pizza.<\/p>\n<p>If you happen to be using a regular home oven then turn the heat up as high as it will go (450-500\u00b0F). <\/p>\n<p>Alternatively, you can bake sourdough discard pizza in a cast iron skillet, since they trap heat well. Press the pizza dough into a greased skillet, then bake in a pre-heated oven until golden brown. <\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"720\" height=\"405\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mydailysourdoughbread.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/CD-blog-images-2022-09-01T192835.164-720x405.jpg\" alt=\"How to make sourdough discard pizza dough - easy to follow guide\" class=\"wp-image-2386\" title=\"How To Make Sourdough Discard Pizza Dough - Easy To Follow Guide 129\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mydailysourdoughbread.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/CD-blog-images-2022-09-01T192835.164-720x405.jpg 720w, https:\/\/www.mydailysourdoughbread.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/CD-blog-images-2022-09-01T192835.164-420x236.jpg 420w, https:\/\/www.mydailysourdoughbread.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/CD-blog-images-2022-09-01T192835.164-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.mydailysourdoughbread.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/CD-blog-images-2022-09-01T192835.164-840x473.jpg 840w, https:\/\/www.mydailysourdoughbread.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/CD-blog-images-2022-09-01T192835.164-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.mydailysourdoughbread.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/CD-blog-images-2022-09-01T192835.164-1568x882.jpg 1568w, https:\/\/www.mydailysourdoughbread.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/CD-blog-images-2022-09-01T192835.164-150x84.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.mydailysourdoughbread.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/CD-blog-images-2022-09-01T192835.164-380x214.jpg 380w, https:\/\/www.mydailysourdoughbread.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/CD-blog-images-2022-09-01T192835.164.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"bakers-timeline-for-sourdough-pizza\">Baker\u2019s Timeline for Sourdough Pizza<\/h2>\n<p>Building a sourdough timeline is probably one of the most efficient ways of keeping track of the process in making sourdough discard pizza dough. Here\u2019s a basic timeline for you to refer to:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>7.00am<\/strong> \u2013 Mix the pizza dough with sourdough discard<\/li>\n<li><strong>8.00am<\/strong> \u2013 Place the kneaded dough into a warm bowl, cover with a plastic cover, then place the bowl into a microwave with the door slightly ajar<\/li>\n<li><strong>5.00pm<\/strong> \u2013 Turn the risen pizza dough out on to the counter and divide the dough into balls. Allow them to rest for 30 minutes. <\/li>\n<li><strong>5.30pm<\/strong> \u2013 Shape the pizza bases ad place them onto pizza peels. Let them rest, meanwhile preheat the oven<\/li>\n<li><strong>6.00pm<\/strong> \u2013 Top them with pizza toppings, and place them into the oven to bake. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"can-you-put-sourdough-pizza-dough-in-the-fridge\">Can You Put Sourdough Pizza Dough in the Fridge?<\/h2>\n<p>If you wish to make sourdough discard pizza dough in advance and store it in the refrigerator until you\u2019re ready to shape, place the dough in the fridge, as soon as it has doubled in size. <\/p>\n<p>This should remain intact for 24 hours.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, if you had used commercial yeast as well as discard for the pizza dough, then you can leave the dough in the fridge for up to 3 days after it has doubled in size. <\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"can-you-freeze-sourdough-pizza-dough\">Can You Freeze Sourdough Pizza Dough?<\/h3>\n<p>Yes, absolutely! Sourdough pizza is very simple to freeze, allowing you to come back to your half prepped product in the future. There are two effective ways to freeze your sourdough pizza dough, depending on your personal preference. <\/p>\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"freeze-sourdough-pizza-dough-balls\">Freeze Sourdough Pizza Dough Balls <\/h4>\n<p>If you wish to have some pizza dough available in the freezer on a regular basis, then you can simply divide the pizza dough into balls after it has doubled. Place each ball into a freezer bag, seal and place them into the freezer.<\/p>\n<p>Once you\u2019re ready to make pizza, pull a bag of pizza dough out of the freezer, and allow it to defrost at room temperature. Once the dough has reached room temperature, shape it into a pizza base, and proceed with the recipe. <\/p>\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"freezing-sourdough-pizza-base\">Freezing Sourdough Pizza Base<\/h4>\n<p>For this option, shape your pizza dough into pizza bases. Place each individual pizza base on to a piece of parchment paper, and then on to a pizza peel. Allow the base to freeze uncovered in the freezer for an hour. <\/p>\n<p>Once all the bases have frozen, stack them one atop the other, ensuring that there is a piece of parchment paper in between them. Then wrap the stack of pizza bases in aluminum foil or place them into a large bag. <\/p>\n<p>Once you\u2019re ready to use one, take out the pizza base and top with your choice of pizza toppings. Don\u2019t worry about defrosting the base, as it will defrost while you add your toppings. <\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"720\" height=\"405\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mydailysourdoughbread.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/CD-blog-images-2022-09-01T194946.808-720x405.jpg\" alt=\"How to make sourdough discard pizza dough - guide\" class=\"wp-image-2392\" title=\"How To Make Sourdough Discard Pizza Dough - Easy To Follow Guide 130\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mydailysourdoughbread.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/CD-blog-images-2022-09-01T194946.808-720x405.jpg 720w, https:\/\/www.mydailysourdoughbread.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/CD-blog-images-2022-09-01T194946.808-420x236.jpg 420w, https:\/\/www.mydailysourdoughbread.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/CD-blog-images-2022-09-01T194946.808-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.mydailysourdoughbread.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/CD-blog-images-2022-09-01T194946.808-840x473.jpg 840w, https:\/\/www.mydailysourdoughbread.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/CD-blog-images-2022-09-01T194946.808-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.mydailysourdoughbread.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/CD-blog-images-2022-09-01T194946.808-1568x882.jpg 1568w, https:\/\/www.mydailysourdoughbread.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/CD-blog-images-2022-09-01T194946.808-150x84.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.mydailysourdoughbread.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/CD-blog-images-2022-09-01T194946.808-380x214.jpg 380w, https:\/\/www.mydailysourdoughbread.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/CD-blog-images-2022-09-01T194946.808.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"what-to-make-with-leftover-sourdough-pizza-dough\">What to Make With Leftover Sourdough Pizza Dough<\/h2>\n<p>It\u2019s not unheard of to have pizza dough balls leftover from previous bakes.
