Recipe from Chris Bianco.

How this was adapted

  • The source is by volume only. Flour is 5¼ cups (the middle of its 5–5½ cup range) at 120g per cup, and the water, yeast, and salt are converted too.
  • Add the last of the flour by feel: the dough should pull away from the bowl but still be sticky.
