- 2.500 cups Bread flour
- 1.000 tsp Salt

Instructions
- Mix water with fresh yeast (or dry yeast) until combined

- Let the dough rise until it has doubled in size (about 2 hours)
- Dust work surface with flour and fold the dough for easier division
- Divide dough into 6 equal parts
- Gently flatten each piece and fold tightly into a ball, rubbing against work surface to seal
- For longer pieces, gently flatten, roll tightly, fold into a ball, pinch to seal, and rub against work surface
- Let the balls rest uncovered for 10 minutes
- Fold each ball to tighten its surface and pinch to seal
- Roll the dough into a longer shape with your palm and place on baking pan
- Cover with a towel and let rise for 30 minutes
- Lightly sprinkle flour over the bread using a tea strainer
- Score the bread with a sharp blade or knife
- Sprinkle a little water around the bread to create steam
