Sourdough discard pretzels are not only delicious but also an excellent way to reduce food waste by utilizing your sourdough starter. These pretzels boast a unique flavor and chewy texture, making them irresistible. To make them, start by mixing warm water with brown sugar and sprinkle active yeast on top; let it foam to activate. Next, combine your sourdough discard, all-purpose flour, and salt while mixing. Adding melted butter enhances the richness of the dough, which you should knead until smooth. After letting the dough rise for 60-90 minutes, divide it into portions and shape them into pretzels by creating twists and pressing the ends down securely. Boiling them briefly in water mixed with baking soda gives pretzels their signature crust. Don't forget to brush with egg wash and sprinkle flaky salt before baking. The result is a golden-brown snack that’s perfect with mustard or cheese dip. If you're looking for more ways to enjoy sourdough, consider trying sourdough bread, pancakes, or waffles using your leftover starter. Each recipe brings out the tangy, fermented flavor that sourdough is known for, while minimizing waste and maximizing flavor!
