["Dump the flour into a large mixing bowl. Make a well in the center for the water.", "Pour in the water and mix. I find using one hand to steady the bowl and the other to mix the dough is sufficient. Keep adding water a little bit at a time if necessary until the dough has formed, is uniform, and slightly sticky. Don't worry about overworking.", "Shape the dough roughly into a rounded disk and lay to ""sleep"" in the same mixing bowl you just used. Dampen a cloth or paper towel and drape over the dough lightly to prevent drying.", "Let the dough ""sleep"" for about 20-30 minutes.", "While the dough is sleeping, rinse the green onions and chop them, discarding the root ends. Set aside. It will seem like you have a lot. You should!", "Generously flour a work surface.", "Knead the dough a few times and check the consistency. It should be smooth and dry to the touch, but soft and pliable. If it is too wet and sticky, it will incorporate some of the flour from your work surface as you knead it. You may need to add more flour, but go slow. If it is too dry, it will be hard to knead, get crackly on the outside, and be slow to spring back. In that case, add a few drops of water.", "Once the consistency feels right, shape the dough into a disk shape and begin to roll it out with a rolling pin (I think the plain old wooden broom handle types are the easiest for this). Rotate the dough as you roll. Sometimes it may seem as though you aren't getting anywhere because the dough will keep springing back, but after a certain point it will start to behave and keep its shape.", "Roll the dough as thinly and evenly as you can. It should be a very large and thin circle. Patch the holes with torn off pieces from the edge.", "Pour the oil onto the dough's surface. Use the back of a spoon to smooth it out evenly, taking care not to tear the dough. Make sure the edges are covered too.", "Generously sprinkle the chopped green onions all over the dough. Again, get all the way out to the edge.", "Generously salt and season the pancake. Most often heard complaint over three generations has been, ""It's not salty enough!""
