Hi, I'm Johnathan.
Mad for Dough started the way most good things do — as an obsession that got slightly out of hand.
It began around lockdown with a 30-minute dough and a packet of yeast. Nothing fancy, nothing special. But something clicked. I started baking sourdough in 2023, grew my own starter from scratch, and somewhere between the hundredth pizza and the flour-covered kitchen worktops, what started as a hobby became something I couldn't stop thinking about.
I've fired hundreds of pizzas in my Ooni Koda 12 chasing that perfect Neapolitan base — blistered, chewy, light — and I'm still chasing it.
Mad for Dough is my wee corner of the food world. Just good dough and a lot of love for the craft.
