- If you use cake yeast you will need 1.3 ounces.
- 1 1/2 tablespoons 1 1/2 tablespoons Morton’s Kosher Salt (use less salt to suit your taste or eliminate it all together. Find more information here.)
- 6 1/2 cups 6 1/2 cups (2-pounds) unbleached all-purpose flour (we tested the recipes with Gold Medal and Pillsbury flour. If you use King Arthur or other high protein flour check here.)
