  • About
Remove the dough from the bowl and place on a lightly floured surface. Pulling from the middle of the dough outwards, gently stretch it to a rectangle about 10 by 12 inches (25 cm x 30 cm) (A–D).
Roll the front third of the dough toward the center (E).
Roll the back third over the dough you have just folded (F).
You will now have 3 layers of dough (G).
Repeat the process as shown, starting by folding left to right (H–I).
When completed, you will now have 9 layers. This completes the process of one stretch and fold (J).
