I often feel like the discard from my sourdough starter is wasteful, so I try my best to use it in other ways. One of the best and tastiest ways is to repurpose the discard into waffles. You can make the batter base of this recipe the night before you plan to cook waffles, or just a few hours prior. This is a fantastic weekend breakfast when everyone gets to sleep in!

Make-Ahead Marsala Turkey Gravy
The Thanksgiving Day kitchen is a busy, hectic scene that can intimidate even the most experienced cooks. By doing your gravy ahead of time, you make that last-minute production a lot easier. That's not to say I want you to throw away all those lovely turkey pan juices sitting in your roasting pan. Time permitting, strain them into a saucepan, boil them down, and add them to this sauce.
