Weekly I feed my starter, removing 8 oz. and leaving 4 oz. I sometimes just feed the 8oz to make a total volume of 16 oz., say for the "naturally leavened sourdough" recipe. Is this considered a "fed"starter. If you have a recipe that calls for 8oz. Can you just use the discard? Or would you feed it to make 16 oz. and basically have extra for the recipe?
