Kneed sticky dough in hands or in mixer for 2 minutes, until smooth and elastic Break dough up into 8-10 golf ball sized balls Dampen cloth with warm water and let cloth sit on dough for 20 minutes.

POTATO EGGS Peel 2 medium potatoes, chop Fry in corn oil, medium heat, then add salt (kosher salt or sea salt) and pepper. Cook until crisp but tender, then remove, drain and add more salt and pepper to taste. They should taste a bit like French fries.
