my favorite way to cook these is in a cast iron skillet with a little bit of EVOO. it doesn’t puff up and form a pocket, but it stays kind of dense and chewy. Which is exactly how they serve it at my favorite middle eastern restaurant. big hit, thanks for the recipe! 🙂
I’ve been grinding grains and baking breads since the seventies. Sugar is absolutely not necessary, and certainly not for yeast activation. I routinely proof my yeast out of decades of habit, and never put sugar in for proofing. We must remember that wheat has sugars in it, just not the sweetness that our tongues want.
nope, you have to roll the dough out, after you roll it out let it rest for 10-15 minutes and the dough will then easily rise in the oven and create a pocket 🙂
Wow I can only imagine how good this smells when it’s in the oven. Can’t wait to try this recipe!!

I made this and it was great! I thought I had messed it up when I put the dough into the bowl to rise for three hours (because the dough was so liquidy) but it worked! Delicious, thanks!
I messed up the first time and it still tasted good. This time, I got everything right, and the bread is…..unbelievable. Thank you for a slammin' recipe.
Hi Dede, I tried this recipe several times. Always tasted good. However sometimes the bread puffens in the oven and sometimes it completely doesn't? Do you know what I'm doing wrong?
interesting

you must let the dough rest after you roll it out, let the dough circles sit for 10-15 minutes 🙂

you need to let the dough rest after rolling it out into a circle, then bake it and it should create a bubble.

sugar is food for the yeast to feed on and grow :)

Hey. My dough doubled in size but my bread did not turn fluffy with the baking. You think there was a reason for it?

isn’t it you should knead it first before proofing..? because you will just kill the bubbles..

Oh wow, I love your videos but.. I was told that after the rising you shouldn’t knead the dough anymore or you counter the rising.. is that true?

The sugar does not activate the yeast. Yeast will activate just fine with only the warm water. Sugar can act as an accelerant.
