Instructions

The dough shouldn't be overtly sticky, but it shouldn't be firm either. Knead the dough just until it is smooth, then return it to the bowl, cover it with a damp towel and let it rise in a warm spot until it is doubled in bulk, about 1 hour. Punch it down and let it sit for 15 minutes, then proceed with the Kouign Aman .
