Ann, the Extra-Tangy Sourdough recipe relies on the yeast activity of a fed starter in order to get a nice rise and texture to your bread. We don't recommend adding an additional cup of discard to this recipe as it may disturb the fermenting action of the wild yeast in the fed starter. You can however, add 8 ounces of sourdough discard to most any recipe that does not already call for starter to use up any excess starter and to also give your baked goods a surprising tang. Happy baking! Kye@KAF
