Low

Preheat the oven to 180° C Add flour, yeast, sugar, and vegetable shortening to the mixer, gradually add water until a dough forms, and knead with the hook until it stretches and makes a transparent window. On a floured surface, knead by hand and form a homogeneous dough, place it in a greased mold, cover with a damp cloth or non-stick plastic, and let it ferment until it doubles in size. With the help of a dough cutter, portion the dough into balls of approximately 40 grams, shape them and arrange them on a greased baking sheet. Flatten slightly with your hands and let them ferment again until they double in size and have a very light consistency and are not heavy. Bake for 20 minutes until a hard crust forms, remove from the oven and let cool.

Tips

Remember that it is very important not to add all the water at once; the dough will ask for water as needed. You will know it is ready when you can stretch it enough so that it doesn't tear and forms a translucent window.
