    Remove dough from can. Cut lengthwise into 4 pieces; roll each piece into a 14-inch-long rope. Gather the ropes together at 1 end. Pinch end to seal ropes together. Take the outermost rope on the left side and move to the right, under the middle 2 ropes, then on top of the rope directly to the left. Repeat with the rope on the outermost side on the right. Bring the rope to the left under the middle 2 ropes, then on top of the rope directly to the right. Continue with this until the ropes are completely braided. Pinch the ends of the rope to seal well.
