How to Do It
- Take a small piece of dough (golf ball size)
- Gently stretch it between your fingers
- Rotate and stretch until thin enough to see light through
- If it tears before becoming translucent, knead more
What You're Looking For
Properly developed dough stretches into a thin, translucent membrane without tearing. You should be able to see your fingers through it.
When It Fails
If dough tears easily, it needs more kneading or more rest time. Try 5 more minutes of kneading or let it rest 20 minutes and test again.
