  2. Love this recipe. I freeze them in twos and then make pizza. My dough was sticking to the cutting board so I threw out a little flour and they rolled out perfectly.

  3. I have made this several times. I up the flour a bit or it is too sticky. This is a wonderful recipe.
    The kneading the dough until smooth” step is skipped in the written instructions (it only says to mix until smooth). Follow the video instead.”

  5. If measuring in grams, then don’t. The dough is a sticky blob, which can’t be kneeded.
    Waste of ingredients
