Transfer the dough to a floured surface. Form into a log 10 inches (25 cm) long (depending on the size of your dough) Do this by rolling the dough back and forth into a cylinder shape with floured hands.
Transfer the logs to the baking sheet, bake until firm to the touch, about 25 - 30 minutes (logs will spread during baking). Remove from the oven, place on a wire rack, and let cool for about 10 minutes.
Using a long spatula transfer the logs to a cutting board. Using a serrated knife, cut the logs into slices about 3/4 inch (2 cm) thick on the diagonal. Arrange the slices on the baking sheet and bake on about 8 - 10 minutes.
Turn the slices over and bake until crisp and dry, about 8 - 10 minutes longer.
Remove from oven and let cool on wire rack.
