2. Set the bowl aside for about 20 minutes before rolling out the dough.
(If you can make the dough 1 day and leave it in a refrigerator overnight it will be better).
3. Roll out the dough on a floured board very thin.
4. Cut in strips 6 or 7 inches long and about 2 wide.
5. Take a stick of cheese and warp diagonally until it is covered.
6. Pinch the dough to be sure it is well sealed. Continue until all cheese is used up.
