eva has made some doughs with cake flour but i don't know what percentage she used. all of the prior doughs had some "spring back" which made stretching and getting the dough thin a problem. on the other hand, i don't think we've ever hydrated a pizza dough as much as we did this weekend so that might of had some effect as well. i was impressed at how we could stretch the caputo without any tearing as compared to our previous doughs.
