Instructions
- Sift the flour into a large glass or metal mixing bowl
- Combine the water, oil, and salt in a separate saucepan. Stir the mixture and heat over medium, bringing it to a boil until the salt is fully dissolved
- Gradually pour the boiling water into the flour in a thin stream, stirring constantly, until all the liquid is absorbed
- Transfer the entire mixture onto a silicone mat and knead the dough until it is smooth, pliable, and no longer sticks to your hands
- Cover the dough with cling film or a towel and let it rest for at least an hour
- After just an hour, the dough will be ready to use for making your favorite products with any filling you like!
Notes
-
As with any dough, it's important to use high-quality flour.
-
Don't skip the step of letting the dough rest after mixing — it will become much more elastic and resilient.
-
Products made from this dough can be safely frozen without worrying that they’ll lose their shape when cooked in boiling water or hot oil.
