I used to be very precise about my baking in terms of measurements, and for quick breads, I still am. However, since baking with
sourdough almost exclusively for 6 years, our recipes have gone out the window and the most important thing is to achieve the correct hydration of the dough. This will vary with the humidity, the amount of
water in your starter (we keep ours the consistency of thick American pancake batter), and the sort of flour you use
Dough:
* A glob of sourdough starter (1-2 cups?)
*
Enough plain flour to make an elastic, springy dough
* If you don't have enough dough, add more flour and water
* 1-2 tbs salt for two pizzas
Toppings (slightly blasphemous, but it's still pizza to me!):
* Mixture of our homemade chickweed and kale pestos for the base
* 1-2 bunches chopped kale
* Small amount of cheese
*
Mushrooms
* Sliced courgette
* Red capsicum
