This sourdough discard tortilla recipe is not only delicious, but it's also a great way to use up your sourdough discard. Here's what you'll need:

2. Add the sourdough discard, water, and salt to the bowl. Mix until a soft dough forms.

3. Knead the dough for a few minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.

4. Divide the dough into 6 equal portions and shape them into balls.
