Flour measurements can drive a person batty. KAF says a cup weighs 4.25 oz, America's Test Kitchen says 5 ounces. If you're an experienced bread maker and making bread it doesn't matter, you can adjust by sight and feel. But if your making a quick bread, cake, cookies etc it's not so easy. The thing is, you don't know what weight was used in developing the recipe.
Today I made a batch of wheat/semolina/rye buns (measured by weight!). Since it's so cold outside, I thought the next couple of days would be good pizza days so I'm in the process of making a small batch of pizza dough. It's about 470 grams and I'm undecided whether to divide it into 2 or 3 pizzas. I have time to figure it out.
