  3. Increase the speed to medium and continue mixing for 4 minutes, or until a firm dough forms.

  4. Turn out the dough onto a work surface and knead it into a smooth ball.

  5. Cover the dough and let it rest for 1 hour or in the refrigerator for a maximum of 4 hours.

  6. Roll the dough into a 10 by 15-inch rectangle and refrigerate.

  7. Prepare the butter by cutting it into pieces and rolling it into a slab.

  9. After the final fold, wrap the dough and let it rest in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before shaping.
