Use what is in the jar

Sourdough Discard Recipes by Grams Available

Find published sourdough discard recipes for 100, 113, 200 or 227 grams, with equipment and planning notes before you mix.

Choose discard from a healthy, established starter with a known storage history, matching the recipe’s hydration. Cook it fully; raw flour and discard are not ready to eat. Filtering does not verify a jar’s safety.

The calculation

Weigh your usable discard, choose a recipe that uses that amount or less, then calculate leftover discard = available grams − recipe grams.

Worked example

With 200 g available, the 100 g pancakes leave 100 g and the 113 g brownies leave 87 g. The 200 g pancake recipe uses the full portion. A recipe requiring 227 g does not fit until you have that amount.

What to check

This is a selection tool, not a recipe scaler. Use the published formula’s hydration, ingredients and cooking directions. Keep discard from a healthy established starter, label the oldest collection date, and discard suspect growth or jars with an uncertain history. Cook raw flour, eggs and discard fully.
