Step 5
Transfer the dough to a pastry bag and pipe it onto a silicone mat, shake to eliminate bubbles. If bubbles are present, carefully pierce them with a toothpick; the surface should be smooth. Leave it like this for 50 minutes; after this time the surface of the pieces should be dry and not stick to your hands. Preheat the oven to 130 °C for 10 minutes.
