description
Unleavened bread is a non-yeast bread that can be more or less swollen or crunchy depending on the type of cooking you choose: in fact, unleavened bread can be cooked either in the oven or in the frying pan.
preparation
step 1
NB: I used semi-integral semolina flour. Adding half a teaspoon of baking soda will result in a more soft and swollen bread (optional)
step 2
In a large bowl pour the flour (or the flours) sifted, then add the extra virgin olive oil and a pinch of salt. Simply unite the water at room temperature and start kneading.
step 3
Transfer the dough to the work surface and knead vigorously to obtain a smooth and homogeneous mixture. Put the resulting mixture in the bowl, cover it with a cloth and leave for 1 hour.
step 4
After spending the rest, split the dough into small balls and lay them with the rolling pin on a floured floor to form thin discs. Our hot rolls are ready for cooking.
step 5
I opted for a frying pan to have some fluffy and swollen sandwiches: oil and heat a pan very well and bake unleavened bread disks one at a time for about 5 minutes on the side.
step 6
Unleavened bread will tend to swell and form bubbles. So it will be softer than unleavened bread baked in the oven, and can also be divided in half and stuffed with cooked or raw vegetables.
step 7
For baking in the oven: Preheat the oven at 180 ° C, cover a baking tray with baking paper, and place on the baking sheet the dough pieces. Brush them with a few drops of extra virgin olive oil.
step 8
Bake in static oven for 15 minutes. It will be ready when it is just golden on the surface.
step 9
Store unleavened bread in a paper bag or wrapped in a cloth and consume it within a couple of days to prevent it from hardening too much.
