I was making pizza crust dough long before I decided that I wanted to learn how to make bread.
I had the bread formula which came with my Hamilton Beach stand mixer and that was all = no other help.
I even had to look up how to knead the dough!
Yes, I wasted some flour. Hindsight tells me that you will never know which questions to ask if
you allow somebody to lead you by the nose through the process. That's the "dogma" which sticks to your shoes.
Bertinet tends to be a bit that way. But, everything he suggests works really well when you have the time.
My bread formula is mine. Not out of a book or off the internet.
The result of exploration which gives me bragging rights.
Much to my delight, I can begin with the basic formula and derive all sorts of baked goods from it.
