Directions

MAKING
2. Take a bowl and measure the flour, add salt.
3. Make a well in the center and pour in the yeast and remaining water
4. Blend well with a wooden spoon or with hand, to make sticky dough.
5. Cover the bowl with a towel and let rest for an hour in a very warm place.
6. An hour later the dough should double in size (proof) resembling picture (5), if it fails to do so leave for another 30 min in a much warmer place.
7. Deflate the dough by punching it down with your fist. Dust it with a lot of dry flour to obtain a thicker consistency
8. Transfer the dough to a work surface and start kneading with hands using dry flour if needed.
9. Knead for a few minutes folding the dough in, until smooth and shiny, as in picture8.
10. Coat with oil.
