then add the liquids. Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead it
for 10-12 minutes.The dough should have a coarse look, but will be
cohesive, stretchy, tacky but not sticky, and resilient. Allow the dough to
rise for about 1-1/2 hours (until double in size).
NEXT Punch it down, and allow it to rise
again for 1-1 1/2 hours. Punch it down again. Cut the dough into two (2)
