| D | After the dough has rested, scale it into the appropriate sized dough balls: round off the dough by pulling at the outer edges of each dough ball and folding the edges into each other. Rotate the dough ball 90 degrees and repeat the process with the opposite edges. Roll the dough in a circular motion with your hands, forming a smooth ball, and place the dough balls in a lightly oiled dough box. | ||||
| E | Cover the surface of each doughball with a light coating of oil to prevent the dough from skinning. Cover the dough box and refrigerate for a minimum of 12-16 hours in the refrigerator. For best flavor, age 2-3 days. | ||||
| *Bowl Characteristics: At about 2 minutes the dough should be releasing from the sides of the bowl but still be sticking to the bottom. If it is too wet and sticking to the bottom add a little more flour.If the dough is too dry and clinging only to the hook add more water. | |||||
