Roll thin
Roll each ball on a floured surface to a 12-inch round, very thin (1/8 inch or less). Rolling pin mandatory.
- 6
Dock
Dock aggressively with a docker or fork - every half-inch, all over.
- 7
Dry uncovered
Place skins on parchment, on a sheet tray, uncovered, in the fridge for 12-24 more hours. This dries the surface for crackling crispness.
