  2. Now’s the time to knead the dough.  Calmly flour the counter and knead, including complete wheat flour as wanted to forestall dough from sticking too badly to your arms.  You need to have a mushy, barely sticky dough by the point you’re completed (8-10 minutes).  Place dough in a big bowl that’s been flippantly sprayed with oil.  Cowl and let rise for an hour and a half, or till doubled in measurement.  Punch dough down and let relaxation for five minutes.
