  Kneading and Mixing the Dough

  First, place the flour on the table, using 2 plastic pieces to press the dough into a square shape. Then cover it with a layer of plastic wrap and roll it out to make the surface smooth.

  Next, cut this piece of dough in half to create 2 equal parts and stack them on top of each other. Continue to gently press the 2 layers of dough together.

  Repeat the cutting and pressing process 3 more times.

  Finally, wrap the dough tightly in plastic wrap, use a rolling pin to flatten it into a square shape, and place it in the refrigerator for 1 hour.

  Tip: Rolling and folding the dough multiple times will help the pastry develop many layers.
