1

Mix 150 grams of semolina, 200 grams of sifted plain flour, and a pinch of salt in a bowl.

2

In a separate bowl, combine 100 milliliters of room temperature water with 50 milliliters of boiling water.

3

Dissolve 10 grams of fresh yeast in the water mixture and let it sit for 10 minutes.

4

Rub 25 grams of butter into the flour mixture until well incorporated.

5

Make a well in the flour mixture and pour in the yeast mixture.

6

Use a fork to combine the ingredients, then transfer to a floured surface and knead for about 10 minutes.

7

Place the dough in a bowl with a splash of olive oil, cover with a cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 to 2 hours until doubled in size.

8

After rising, knock down the dough and divide it into three pieces, letting them rest for about 10 minutes.

9

Roll out each piece of dough thinly, aiming for about 1 millimeter thickness.

10

Cut the rolled dough into circles about 7-8 centimeters in diameter and prick the centers with a fork.

11

Preheat the oven to 235 degrees Celsius and bake the galletti, flipping them halfway through for even cooking.
