3. Add the water and mix into the dough with a wooden spoon until in comes together..
4. Remove dough from bowl and place on a floured working surface. Knead with the palm of your hand for a good 15 minutes. Dust hands or working surface with extra flour as needed if the dough is sticking too much..
