Re: (...)
We had pizza for dinner the other night. . . . with Jean's wonderful bread flour pizza dough. Somehow in the insanity of 6 days straight of LONG days the remaining pizza dough got forgotten. I found it today on the "counter" (way out of the way) - smelling like wonderful sourdough, no mold, no sludge, nothing but sourdough smelling dough. (Thursday we had pizza??) Does anyone have an idea . . . could it be like a biga?? Or, should I toss it?

I would say, when in doubt....
Practice safe lunch. Use a condiment.

I would go a head and make it into something and bake. The oven will take care of any problems

Thank you all - this crazy work schedule is driving me nuts! I just remembered it, sniffed it, and it's all bubbly, yeasty, and sourdough smelling. There's no liquid, no funky smell. If it wasn't so late . . . .
Cis I'm going to treat it like a biga and bake it tomorrow (even if I have to take it down to the restaurant!).

Only my opinion, but I think it will be safe to use. I used to leave a sour dough starter out on my counter for weeks. It was always fine. In fact, it's probably going to be great.
