The other thing I did yesterday morning was mix sourdough pita dough. I set it in the refrigerator to rest and develop overnight, with an eye to baking it this morning. This morning, when I pulled it from the refrigerator, a packet of cheese was stuck to it. Overnight it had become the Monster that Ate the Refrigerator.
Perhaps it's because in yesterday's heat the refrigerator was up to 54F. This morning it had crawled down to 42.
I took the silicone lid off and cut the overflow away. It's a bit on the dried and crusty side. I have it under a damp tea towel to see whether I can moisten it enough to make it pliable again. The remainder of the dough, that stayed in the container, seems okay.
Any advice about what to do with this mess? I'm going to clean up my breakfast dishes and then start rolling the pita.
Edited to add: The dried stuff on the right was successfully rehydrated and also made into pitas. We're set for snack / sandwich breads for a few days.
