Hey all,

I'm new here and not a very experienced baker. I love making bread and have made fresh pretzels, bagels, bread... never owned a bread machine or anything. I understand basic terminology for baking, etc. but I'm still not that experienced lol. I always need a recipe to bake anything. And I'm wondering if there is a 'basic' dough that I can use for pizza crusts, french bread, basic bagels, pita ... is there any universal recipe? Or do they all need to be tweaker one way or another depending on their use? The recipes I've used all seem to have the same ingredients but I'm not a math wizard and can't tell if the different proportions matter or what ha ha.

I'm sure that sounds boring as heck but I have IBS and can't handle a lot of grainy, seedy breads as much as I love them.
