Method

  1. Score the fat, salt it heavily, and leave it uncovered in the fridge overnight if you can.
  2. Sit it on the fennel and garlic, pour in the wine, cover tightly with foil.
  3. 140°C for five hours. Then uncover, turn to 220°C for 30 minutes to crisp.
  4. Rest 30 minutes. It should pull apart with a spoon.

Watch: shaping the dough

The shaping is the step everyone asks about. Everything else reads fine.
