Swirl with your finger. Allow to sit for 10 minutes until yeasts bubbles and floats to the top like puffs of clouds.Drop in flours, 1 cup at a time mixing with a fork or in a stand mixer with a dough hook.When you can no longer stir because the mixture is thick and sticky, begin to mix and blend with one hand, using the other hand to turn the bowl, or continue mixing in a mixer bowl with the dough hook for 3-5 minutes.When mixture is a rough ball, scrape it onto a clean, lightly floured surface and continue to knead with both hands adding flour if the mixture becomes sticky. Use your palm to push and fold the dough over itself; the dough will begin to become elastic. Continue adding flour until it is no longer sticky but is firm to the touch.Place in the same bowl, no need to dirty another dish. Cover with a tea cloth. Allow to rise in the warm oven until double in size approximately 1 to 1-1/2 hours.Remove from oven and on a clean, lightly floured surface with your hands, begin to shape dough, flattening with your hands into a disk then stretching with your knuckles underneath the dough.
