Notes
*If long fermenting, I would suggest using 1/4 cup more sourdough starter to make sure the flour is moist enough for fermentation.This is a discard recipe. So, no need to feed your starter before hand. However, active starter works, too.Sharp cheddar is the classic choice for this recipe, but you can use other cheeses as well. They will just add a different flavor.
