    Transfer the dough to a work surface lightly dusted with flour. Knead the elastic dough, which should not be tight. Form a ball, wrap loosely in film or cover with a towel and leave to rise for 45 minutes. The kitchen should be warm and all windows should be closed to avoid drafts.

  4. STEP 4

    Take 2 pieces and roll each of them into a thin cake with a rolling pin. I got flat cakes with a diameter of 20 cm (about the size of a frying pan).
