Whether you're scooping up a savory dip, +wrapping a flavorful filling, or simply savoring a piece with a drizzle +of olive oil, these flatbreads are sure to impress. + +\textbf{Ingredients:} + +\begin{enumerate} +\item 400 grams flour (wheat, rye, corn, whatever you have at hand) +\item 320 grams water, preferably at room temperature +\item 80 grams active sourdough starter +\item 8 grams salt +\end{enumerate} + +\textbf{Instructions:} +\begin{enumerate} +\item \textbf{Prepare the Dough:} In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour and water. +Mix until you have a shaggy dough with no dry spots. + +\item Add the sourdough starter and salt to the mixture. Incorporate them thoroughly +until you achieve a smooth and homogenized dough. + +\item \textbf{Fermentation:} Cover the bowl with a lid or plastic wrap. Allow the dough +to rest and ferment until it has increased by at least 50\% in size. +Depending on the temperature and activity of your starter, +this can take anywhere from 4 to 24 hours. + +\item \textbf{Cooking Preparation:} Once the dough has risen, heat a pan over medium heat. +Lightly oil the pan, ensuring to wipe away any excess oil with a paper towel. + +\item \textbf{Shaping and Cooking:} With a ladle or your hands, scoop out a portion of +the dough and place it onto the hot pan, spreading it gently like a pancake. + +\item Cover the pan with a lid. This traps the steam and ensures even cooking +from the top, allowing for easier flipping later. + +\item After about 5 minutes, or when the bottom of the flatbread has a +golden-brown crust, carefully flip it using a spatula. + +\item \textbf{Adjusting Cook Time:} If the flatbread appears too dark, +remember to reduce the cooking time slightly for the next one. +Conversely, if it's too pale, allow it to cook a bit longer before flipping. + +\item Cook the flipped side for an additional 5 minutes or until it's also golden brown. + +\item \textbf{Storing:} Once cooked, remove the flatbread from the pan and place it on a +kitchen towel. Wrapping the breads in the towel will help retain their +softness and prevent them from becoming overly crisp. +Repeat the cooking process for the remaining dough. + +\item \textbf{Serving Suggestion:} Enjoy your sourdough flatbreads warm, +paired with your favorite dips, spreads, or as a side to any meal. + +\end{enumerate} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/book/tables/table-flat-bread-pancake-recipe.tex b/book/tables/table-flat-bread-pancake-recipe.tex index 2d0bc0a..1378540 100644 --- a/book/tables/table-flat-bread-pancake-recipe.tex +++ b/book/tables/table-flat-bread-pancake-recipe.tex @@ -3,7 +3,7 @@ \toprule & \textbf{Flat breads} & \textbf{Pancakes} \\ \midrule \textbf{Flour} & 100g & 100g \\ -\textbf{Water} & 100g (100\%) & 300g (300\%) \\ +\textbf{Water} & up to 100g (100\%) & 300g (300\%) \\ \textbf{Sourdough starter} & 5--20g (5--20\%) & 5--20g (5--20\%) \\ \textbf{Salt} & 2g (2\%) & 2g (2\%) \\ \textbf{Bake when?} & Dough increased 50 percent in size & Bubbles visible on surface \\ \bottomrule
