| 1. Measure the flour and put in a bowl. | 2. Add the liquid ingredients and mix well. | 3. Mix in the other dry ingredients, except for the 1/4 cup sugar to be used for dredging, and knead for just a couple of minutes. | 4. Cover the dough and let rise until doubled in size. The amount of time required will depend on the yeast and the dough temperature, but probably about 1.5 hours. | 5. Preheat a convection oven to 375. A standard oven to about 400 degrees. | 6. Place parchment paper on your baking sheet. | 7. When dough has doubled, punch it down to deflate it. | 8. Pinch off plum sized balls of dough, and roll into circles about 8 inches across and 1/8 inch thick. | 9. Note: Don't worry about using flour on the countertop, the oil will be oozing from every pore of the dough and it won't stick to anything. | 10. Put the sugar for dredging on a plate. | 11. Dredge one side of the torta by laying it on the plate of sugar. | 12. Place torta sugar side up, onto the parchment covered baking sheet. | 13. Bake tortas about 10 minutes. You will want to watch as they get close to the end to make sure they don't get too dark. | 14. Remove tortas from the baking sheet and cool them on a rack. | 15. Eat and enjoy! | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
