How is this calculated?
looks good, but two things. I would have preferred that you had not used weights. I know they are more reliable but with something like this exact precision is not necessary. So it would be far easier is you had said 1/2 cup mayonnaise, 1 Tbs this, etc, as I don't particularly like weighing everything when it is not necessary. It is for some breads, but usually being off a tiny bit is not going to make any real significant difference. I was a professional cook and I worked as an Artisan Baker for years. I am retired now. I don't work hard anymore if I don't have to. And my food turns out quite yummy even if I am lazy now. Thanks for the recipe, but like I said, it would be better with cups/tsp/Tbsp measures for those of us who are lazy or retired.
