Great recipe for a discard starter

My husband of 35 years rarely says anything when I try a new recipe. He raves about this crust! He has requested it be on the menu for our group family campout later this summer! Thank you so much! It's our new favorite and just as good or better than take out pizza!❤

So glad I found this video! Just made this and had it for dinner. It’s now our new fav and will definitely be cooked often! Thank you so much. 🇦🇺♥️

I’m so glad! This is my go-to quick dinner.

I like the addition of baking soda. It produces carbon dioxide gas when in an acidic dough. A suggestion would be to use weight rather than volume for the sour dough, it’s just more precise given the activity of the starter.

Normally that is absolutely my recommendation! That’s not so important for this one though. I pretty much just dump and go when I’m making this pizza crust.

Just had to say thank you!!!! I didn't have baking soda...so I used baking powder...3 to 1. This is now my new favorite!!! Thank you again!!

Your face when you’re taking the pizza out of your well seasoned cast iron was so sweet! 😂 I get this excited about my dinners too! Looking forward to making this tonight ! 😊

Loved hearing that crunch

Thank you Jaylea! I just started back with my sourdough and looking for easy recipes and this one knocked it out of the ballpark! My husband was impressed also!!! I will be making this often! Thanks again!! Blessings and Shalom 🙏 for you!

Oh, not a bad idea, but one reason why people wouldn't want baking soda is the impact in your stomach. It depends on what you generally eat, and what was added to your pizza as well. Simpler = better. I would reduce the baking soda to about 1/8 teaspoon per 1 cup at the maximum, half that as a standard.

@@faithandarrowhomestead It is a very clever idea to add a little buoyancy to the crust. So thank you very much for putting your cooking idea out there.

If you have a bread machine you can make pizza dough just adding ingredients and pressing button. So much easier as I also do not like making pizza dough. Thanks for your video.

Ooo! That’s a great idea! I’m a fan of my Italian neighbours old school caramelized onion and potato pizza once in awhile! No cheese, but olive oil and some fresh thyme and sea salt! L♥️VED your breakfast pizza idea for another change! Thank you! ( by the way? I’ve had to go get an oven thermometer and check my temperature AGAIN,.. sure enough the darn temperature was “off” by almost 50°) ugh! 🤣 Merry Christmas!

Using both handles on that 12” skillet would be much easier and safer.

Sounds delicious! I love and have tried keeping sourdough started, but I have found that it really doesn’t work well for 1 person. I also try to eat more 12 grain bread-which I also love. I make regular pizza dough in my KItchenAid and freeze some for future meals. It’s a great recipe, since I like a thicker crust as well, but I wonder if I could try adding baking soda to make it fluffy. If so, should I reduce the flour to make it a looser dough like your sourdough? I always make a large enough pizza for leftovers, which I reheat in a cast iron pan-covered with a splatter guard, so it heats through without ‘steaming’. Leftover pizza for breakfast? Absolutely! I really appreciate your honest, relaxed manner. I’ve been subscribed for a while, and I’m currently catching up on some of your playlists while I work on piecing quilts. I try to remember to 👍🏻 each one, but I’m easily distracted when I start to post comments. It wouldn’t be so bad, but-as you can see-I rarely stop at a sentence or two.🤣 You are amazing! ❤️ Thank you, and stay well! Muskoka ON 🇨🇦

Wow thank you so much for this!

So you use baking soda to make it puffier but would using an active starter (instead of discard) do the same thing?

@faithandarrowhomestead

No it doesn’t puff up the same. But both ways are really good!

Very interesting pizza crust, the final product looks very delicious! Just throwing this out there, do you or have you made any breads in a cast iron Dutch oven? I just bought a 6qt cast iron Dutch oven for making breads, but have not learned all the different things about flour types and things like that to make my own breads yet. If you ever are willing to make a video of bread making in a Dutch oven , I will be watching and learning! :)

Hi. I’m about to give this formula a try, I’ve done others that came out gummy in the middle. What I’m wondering is if there is a reason that you did not add salt?

interesting ...for no yeast doughs I've always used baking powder, not baking soda. like for bannok dough for any sort of Bannock bread or tortillas. now I'm curious the difference between using 1 over the other

@faithandarrowhomestead

So baking powder is made up of baking soda, cream of tarter and cornstarch. Baking soda is baking soda. You can use baking powder in place of baking soda but not the other way around. I use baking soda in this recipe because that’s all it needs. Using baking powder is unnecessary. :)
