I broke my fast 6 hours ago.

We're having pizza for lunch, so I've started the prep for that.
Technically, I started the prep yesterday. I'm trying a new
dough recipe:

I made a half batch since it's an experiment.

It worked out beautifully. The dough was a little difficult to
form since it was so soft and wet, but it baked up like a dream.

I'm surprised as the hydration was only 66% plus a small amount of oil.
Did you use cups instead of weighing?

Nope. I set my scale to grams and weighed.

Perhaps "wet" is a little overstatement, because I have relatively
little experience with dough. But it was very soft.
