  • Do 2–3 more folds, every 15–20 minutes, using the second folding method
  • Let the dough rise.
  • If the dough spreads too much, fold it sooner instead of waiting
  • Transfer the dough onto a well-floured surface, flour the top as well, then cut into your desired sizes
  • Place onto a baking tray lined with parchment paper and let it rest for 20 minutes (tray proof)
  • Bake in a preheated oven at 230°C (450°F) for 15 minutes with steam
