Manty dough on water

The real dough for manti came from the depths of centuries. Cook it right. Many argue about the manta ray test, it has been going on for a long time and will last even longer. They say that it should be without eggs, this makes it rubbery. They also say that you need to cook with a soul. I agree with these two sayings, but how many more controversial points there are! ..
