Mix the dry yeast with half a glass of water, until it dissolves well.
In a bowl, add 1.5 kg of flour, along with the yeast, and gradually add
water and the remaining amount of flour, until it becomes slight dough
and does not stick to your hands.
Knead for a long time to get the dough to the desired result.
Divide the dough into 12 parts.

seeds.
