Breaking Down Baker's Percentages | Baker's math, dough hydration, baking formulas

One of the most valuable things I learned in culinary school was how to calculate and use baker's percentages. If you aren't familiar with the concept, baker's percentages or baker's math is a way of calculating a recipe formula where each ingredient is represented as a percentage as it relates to the amount of flour in the recipe. This skill is extremely helpful if you ever want to develop your own recipes, or if you are interested in getting in-depth into bread baking.
