Tips

  • Folding and stretching the dough helps trap air, which creates beautiful bubbles inside.
  • Resting the dough helps it ferment and form beautiful pockets of air when baked.
  • Flour all surfaces so the dough doesn't stick because it is very sticky.
  • Shape the dough gently as to not pop the bubbles.
  • Preheat the oven fully for a crusty outside and a soft fluffy inside.
  • Add ½ cup of iced water to the oven tray while baking for best results.
