Final Notes
Final Notes
Spread some flour on the wooden board so that the dough doesn't stick to it. And an important tip for proofing dough is that placing the baking tray in your oven with a large bowl of hot water inside. Close your oven door and wait until all the ball dough is at least doubled in size.
