Ingredients used

Already cast

Crush 2 cloves in the mortar

Pulverized, hehe with that steel mortar, it's magic to make spice powder

Rest of ingredients

We form a ball and to the fridge

Sprinkle with flour

Stretch the dough

Already cut the dolls

That they don't brown too much eh? So they are tender

I don't like them too thick, that's the ideal thickness

To the can, they last the strip and each day that passes, the richer they are!
