👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. 1

   {'id': 'step_0', 'step': 1, 'text': 'Preheat the oven to 475 degrees F (245 degrees C). Move an oven rack to the top position. Preheat a heavy baking sheet in the oven.'}

2. 2

   {'id': 'step_1', 'step': 2, 'text': 'Dust a clean work surface and a rolling pin with 1 teaspoon flour, or as needed.'}

3. 3

   {'id': 'step_2', 'step': 3, 'text': 'Place 1 cup flour into a mixing bowl; set a timer for 16 minutes (18 minutes maximum). Start the timer; pour water, 1 tablespoon at a time, into flour. Stir with a fork until dough forms a rough ball.'}

4. 4

   {'id': 'step_3', 'step': 4, 'text': 'Transfer dough to the prepared work surface; knead rapidly and firmly until smooth, 30 seconds to 1 minute.'}

5. 5

   {'id': 'step_4', 'step': 5, 'text': 'Divide dough into 4 equal-sized pieces; cut each piece in half to get 8 pieces. Swiftly roll each piece into a ball. Working from the center, roll out each dough piece into a 5-inch-diameter round, dusting with flour as needed. Continue to gradually roll dough out to a diameter of about 8 inches, increasing each size by about 1 inch, then letting dough rest for a few seconds before rolling again to the finished size. The dough rounds will be very thin.'}
