Flatbread Pizza

Essex County · July 2008

I tried a new dough for pizza last night. It doesn't need to rise, so it's super quick and easy.

2 cups all purpose flour
1 cup fine semolina flour
1.5 tsp salt
1.25 cups lukewarm water

Combine and mix dry ingredients. Add water (you may not need all of it) and stir with a spoon to make a stiff dough. Knead it for a minute or so. I divided it into 3 balls but I think you could do 4. It's supposed to be rolled out thin enough to see your hand through the dough.

We just topped the pizzas with a little tomato, cheese, fresh basil and olive oil. 10 minutes in a 500 degree egg. The crust is a little chewy and the edges are crisp. This will be our go-to crust for a while.

I know what we're having for dinner.

Thanks

i might try that with some honey and toasted sesame seeds on it this week. there used to be a few bakeries that sold something similar like that around here. i think georges still makes it on pitas. look up zaatar bread, i bet that would be good too, makes for great snacks after they cool down

that sounds great. The dough reminds me of the stuff they use for lemujins (sp?) at Armenian bakeries.
