How to make Pan de Grasa or Cremona

Step 1
Form a well (or 'crown') with the flour and salt on a clean surface.
Step 2
Dissolve the fresh yeast in a bit of water and pour it into the center of the well.
Step 3
Sprinkle a little flour over the yeast mixture to help monitor the rising process.
Step 4
Knead the dough until smooth and elastic, then let it rise until it doubles in size.

Once risen, punch down the dough to release the air (desgasificar).
Step 6
Roll out the dough with a rolling pin, brushing it with beef fat as if you were making puff pastry.
Step 7
Fold the dough and cut it into the desired shapes.
Step 8
Bake in a preheated oven at 200°C (400°F) for 18 minutes.
