Oh yes let them soak for a hour or more, until they are very easy to manipulate.

I hope you have either Tangiers Large Tower bowl or a Saudi bowl on hand? A Super Chief will probably work as well. Standard Egyptians are too small.

If you do have these things, then let the tobacco dry some and then shred it. Put it in the bowl packed in and put the coals directly on top.

If you do not have these bowls, you can wrap the whole leaves around the bowl stem of the hookah, kind of like a cigar is wrapped, only looser so you have airflow. Then you put one coal on the top, until it does, then another, and so on.
