Instructions

  • Mix up with scraper, folding dry into the centre till moisture fairly well distributed & no flour on the bottom
  • Let it sit, 4-5 stretch and pulls, interval doesn’t seem to matter
  • After that I just let it sit out till it’s fully risen, usually takes up the whole bowl. Depending when it might sit out all night
  • LOTS of flour on counter to avoid stick, dump out and dust the top heavily
  • Slice in half, stretch each very roughly into a rectangle shape, fold both long ends into centre, then spin and roll up the opposite way, stitching the ends
  • Typical rice flour sprinkle
  • Flop into basket, then it sits out with the canvas on top til it’s fully risen again, usually poppin’ a half inch out of the basket or so
  • Boil some water, pan at the bottom of oven at 450F
  • Plop ‘em on the steel, give ‘em a slice, a cup or so of boiling water in the pan
  • Cook till you like the crust.
