Preparation:

Dough:

  1. Place all the listed ingredients into the pot, reserving the flour.

  2. Thoroughly whisk the mixture using a wire whisk to combine all the ingredients.

  3. Gently stir over low heat until the mixture begins to foam, indicating the activation of the baking soda.

  4. Remove from heat and gradually incorporate the flour.

  5. Knead the dough until it is smooth and non-sticky.

  6. Divide the dough into four portions and roll out four crusts on baking paper.

  7. Roll them as thinly as possible. To facilitate this, place another sheet of baking paper on top.

  8. Bake on an inverted pan for 4 to 5 minutes at 160-170°C.

  9. The crusts will be ready shortly.

  10. Once all four crusts are baked, cover them with a cloth to cool while you prepare the filling.

  1. Pour 400 ml of milk into a pot, reserving a small amount to mix separately in a bowl with 2 and 1/2 heaping spoonfuls of flour.

  2. Add 4 teaspoons of sugar to the milk through a sieve.
