with the final rolling, before wrapping the filling, do you try to roll it into a circle or let it be a square?

lily,
it would be easier if you can manage to roll it into a circle, however, the dough can stretch so square or circle it doesn't really matter.
What kind of flour do you use for this?
all purpose.
FYI...whenever a recipe any recipe just says "flour" it usually refers to all purpose flour.
