Activate the yeast by combining 3 tablespoons of dry yeast, 1 tablespoon of flour, a pinch of sugar, and a little warm water. Let it sit for 10-15 minutes until it foams.

In a bowl, mix 1 kilogram of flour with 50 grams of fat, integrating the fat into the flour until it resembles small yellow pieces.

Add 15 grams of salt to the flour mixture.

Prepare the mistela by heating 200 centimeters cubed of water and adding 25 grams of flour and a little salt, stirring until it thickens.

Once the mistela is ready, combine it with the flour mixture to form the dough, ensuring there are no lumps and it is not too liquid.

Divide the dough into four rectangles, dusting with corn flour as needed while rolling out.

Brush the surface of the rectangles with the mistela.

Fold each rectangle in half to form a smaller rectangle, marking the surface without cutting through completely.

Cut the folded rectangles into pieces every 3-4 centimeters without cutting all the way through.

Place the cut pieces on a baking tray dusted with corn flour, ensuring they are spaced apart to allow for rising.

Cover the pieces and let them rest for about 30 minutes to rise.
