Wow! Used my starter for the first time with this recipe and it is great! My husband and I ate a whole loaf! I also have a problem with discarding the starter! I used the first discard to make the popovers and they were easy and very tasty with apple butter. First time making popovers. Your sour dough starter is so much thicker looking than when I have made my own previously. Anxious to try other recipes. Cathy, many sourdough recipes call for you to feed with equal parts water and flour by VOLUME - 1 cup water, 1 cup flour. We call to feed equal parts by WEIGHT - 1/2 cup water, 1 cup flour. My belief is, with the alcohol the sourdough is continually making, it'll keep "self-thinning," and there's no need to add additional water to keep it thin. Glad you enjoyed the bread! PJH
