Sprinkle 30 grams of fresh yeast into the well.

Add 1 tablespoon of fat to the mixture.

Gradually incorporate 500 milliliters of warm water into the flour mixture.

Knead until a firm dough forms.

Let the dough rest for 15-20 minutes covered with a cloth until it doubles in size.

Gently deflate the dough and shape it.

Knead the dough again to strengthen it.

Preheat the oven to 230 degrees Celsius.

Once the dough has risen again, sprinkle flour on top and make cuts with a sharp knife.

Place the dough in the preheated oven with a tray of water to create steam.
