Cut the dough into 6 pieces. * This is for 3 LARGE nests.

Roll each piece to form a 1-inch wide rope, about 14 inches long. Twist two ropes to make each nest.

Loosely cover the shaped dough with plastic wrap and a dish towel and place it in a warm area. Let it rise until doubled in size, about 1 hour to 90 minutes (if your kitchen is colder.
