Directions

1

["Combine yeast and sugar in 100ml milk, cover and let stand until yeast is fully dissolved and slightly foamy, about 7-10 minutes.", "In a large bowl, sift the flour and salt together. Make a well in the middle and add beaten eggs into it, the remaining warm milk, olive oil, vinegar and yeast mixture. Mix all ingredients in the bowl using a large wooden spoon. Once it is somewhat combined, turn dough out onto a floured counter until all parts of the dough become smooth and elastic and knead. Clean out and dry the same bowl. Lightly oil or coat with cooking spray.", "Place your dough in it and cover with cling film or a clean towel to leave to rise and double in volume, about 1 hour.", "With hands, gently push down the inflated belly of the dough. Knead through once to smoothen and transfer onto a floured surface. Divide dough into 2 equal parts and then those 2 into 4; there will be 8 pieces of dough altogether.", "Roll each piece of dough out into a oblong, rectangular shape (doesn't have to be perfect) about 1/4\" thick. Brush some cooled melted butter over pieces. Save remaining butter for later.""
