Must be a heat and humidity thing.Had to do two batches before the dough was right.First batch was dry and crumbley and spritzed the dough and it got to wet and it had to much moisture content and because it had mixed way past the ten minute window I chucked it .Second time around it came out ok.Looks like I have to check out a scale to weigh the flour.Any thoughts on a scale that is dependable in the zero to one pound range?

  • Darnoc,
    Don'y know what the 10 min. window means, but you will in time get the feel for the dough w/o relying on measurements. One thing to remember, I think, is that dough will have an initial "set up" just as pancake batter gets thicker a few minutes after mixing. Let this happen with the dough on the very wet side, then add small amount of flour to desired consistency.
