Add greek yogurt and additional salt to flour and stir to combine until a dough starts to form. If the dough is too thick, add more yogurt, 1 Tablespoon at a time. If the dough is too thin, add a sprinkle more of flour.

Use your hands to shape the dough into a smooth ball and all the dry flour is gone. This took about 2-3 minutes. Cover dough ball completely in flour (this will prevent it from sticking to the counter or roller).
