Make msemen as flaky as a Moroccan bakery — three secrets make the difference, and the third is where everyone fails.

INGREDIENTS (US):
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup fine semolina
1 tsp salt
1 tbsp sugar
1.5 cups warm water
Oil + melted butter for layering

CHAPTERS:
0:00 The 3 secrets
0:20 Secret #1: the semolina ratio
0:40 Mix + hydrate the dough
1:10 Knead + the stretch test
1:30 Rest the dough (no dry skin)
1:40 Portion into balls
2:00 Secret #2: butter + oil layering
2:30 Stretch paper-thin
3:30 Envelope fold
3:50 Secret #3: the pan temperature test
4:30 Stack + serve

SUMMARY: (1) Semolina gives chew and structure — flour alone stays flat. (2) Layer butter + oil so the fat turns to steam and lifts the layers. (3) The pan must be hot enough to blister — too cold means greasy, dense msemen.
