Expert Tips

The consistency of the dough should be neither too soft nor too hard. It should be of medium consistency.
The dough should be rolled out well.
It should rest well while we give the dough its final shape; otherwise, it will not be layered.
The resting process is very important when preparing the dough. Do not neglect to cover the dough and let it rest both before and after shaping.
For the yeast to dissolve more quickly, make sure that the ingredients you will use are at room temperature.
You can add a teaspoon of baking soda to make the rolls softer.
Preheat the oven so that the dough cooks evenly.
You can add curd cheese, cheddar cheese, or olives to the filling.
