- 500g Flour
- 2 tsp Salt
- 15g Yeast
- 3dl liquid (water or milk)
- drizzle of olive oil
- put the flour into a large bowl
- add the salt and mix well with the flour
- dissolve the year in parts of the hand warm liquid - make sure that the liquid is not to hot or it will kill the yeast
- mix liquid and flour to a dough - The dough should have the elasticity of the skin of your palm
- form the dough a ball and leave it covered in a warm spot
- wait until the volume dough's has doubled
- form the dough into breads; cover and let it rest for 10 minutes
- meanwhile preheat the oven to 200C

Trick: spray or paint the hot bread with water or sugared water to get a shiny surface
