Instructions

  1. 1 Place flour into work bowl of a large stand mixer; add both amounts of water, 1 tablespoon olive oil, and 3/4 teaspoon salt. Mix dough using stand mixer fitted with dough hook on low speed until it forms a ball on the dough hook, 5 to 6 minutes. Dough should be soft and elastic but not sticky.
  2. 2 Turn dough out onto a work surface and form a ball. Cover with plastic wrap and let stand on counter at room temperature for 1 hour.
  3. 3 Lightly grease the quarter-sheet baking pan with 1 teaspoon olive oil; sprinkle with cornmeal. Dust a work surface lightly with flour.
  4. 4 Move oven rack to center position. Preheat oven to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C).
  5. 5 Unwrap dough and cut into quarters. Pat each quarter out on the floured work surface to a roughly rectangular shape. Roll 1 piece of dough out to about 3/8 inch thick, retaining rough rectangle shape, until dough is about 6x8 inches. Pick up dough with well-floured hands and gently stretch it, rotating as you go, until dough is almost large enough to fit over the prepared sheet pan. Pull and stretch dough so it overlaps the edge of the pan by about 1/2 inch and fasten dough edges to sheet pan edges; dough will be thin and membrane-like.
  6. 6 Drop about 6 tablespoons of crescenza-stracchino cheese onto the stretched dough, spreading the dollops out evenly. Roll out another piece of dough as before, stretching to fit over the first dough sheet and cheese. Stretch, pull, and seal dough as before so the cheese is enclosed between the 2 sheets of dough.
  7. 7 Roll a rolling pin over the edges of the dough to simultaneously seal the flatbread edges and cut the overlapping edges off. Roll the overlapping dough edges away from the pan so flatbread falls into the prepared pan. Press flatbread edges flat and roll slightly if desired to be sure the edges are fully sealed. Discard rolled-off dough edges.
  8. 8 Pinch a small bit of the top dough between your thumb and forefinger and gently tear a small hole in the dough; repeat 2 or 3 more times to make a few tears in the top layer.
  9. 9 Drizzle flatbread lightly with 2 teaspoons olive oil; sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon coarse sea salt.
  10. 10 Bake in the preheated oven until flatbread has many browned, blistered spots on top, bread has inflated, and the top is crusty, 6 to 7 minutes. Repeat steps to make a second flatbread using second half of dough as before. Drizzle 2nd flatbread with remaining 2 teaspoons olive oil and 1/4 teaspoon coarse sea salt. Bake second bread as before. Cut in breads into quarters and serve warm.

Instructions

  1. 1 Preheat your oven's broiler. Place red bell peppers and tomatoes on a baking sheet, and roast under the broiler for about 8 minutes, turning occasionally. This should blacken the skin and help it peel off more easily. Cool, then scrape the skins off of the tomatoes and peppers, and place them in a large bowl. Remove cores and seeds from the bell peppers.
  2. 2 Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the jalapenos and garlic, and cook until tender, stirring frequently. Remove from heat, and transfer the garlic and jalapeno to the bowl with the tomatoes and red peppers. Using two sharp steak knives (one in each hand), cut up the tomatoes and peppers to a coarse and soupy consistency. Stir, and set sauce aside.
  3. 3 Place the semolina in a large bowl, and stir in salt and 4 tablespoons of olive oil. Gradually add water while mixing and squeezing with your hand until the dough holds together without being sticky or dry, and molds easily with the hand. Divide into 6 pieces and form into balls.
  4. 4 For each round, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large heavy skillet over medium heat. Roll out dough one round at a time, to no thicker than 1/4 inch. Fry in the hot skillet until dark brown spots appear on the surface, and they are crispy. Remove from the skillet, and wrap in a clean towel while preparing the remaining flat breads.
  5. 5 To eat the bread and sauce, break off pieces of the bread, and scoop them into the sauce. It will slide off, but just keep reaching in!

  2. 2 Dust a clean work surface and a rolling pin with 1 teaspoon flour, or as needed.
  3. 3 Place 1 cup flour into a mixing bowl; set a timer for 16 minutes (18 minutes maximum). Start the timer; pour water, 1 tablespoon at a time, into flour. Stir with a fork until dough forms a rough ball.
  4. 4 Transfer dough to the prepared work surface; knead rapidly and firmly until smooth, 30 seconds to 1 minute.
  5. 5 Divide dough into 4 equal-sized pieces; cut each piece in half to get 8 pieces. Swiftly roll each piece into a ball. Working from the center, roll out each dough piece into a 5-inch-diameter round, dusting with flour as needed. Continue to gradually roll dough out to a diameter of about 8 inches, increasing each size by about 1 inch, then letting dough rest for a few seconds before rolling again to the finished size. The dough rounds will be very thin.
  6. 6 Use a fork to quickly pierce through each dough round about 25 times, all over, to prevent rising. Flip dough over and pierce each piece again 25 times.
  7. 7 With at least 5 minutes left on the timer, remove the hot baking sheet from the preheated oven and place dough rounds onto the baking sheet.

  3. 3 Cover bowl and let sit until mixture gets bubbly, 30 to 60 minutes.
  4. 4 Drizzle in olive oil; add salt and remaining 1 cup flour. Mix together until mixture forms a sticky (not wet) dough ball that pulls away from the sides of the bowl. If mixture seems too wet, add a bit more flour.
  5. 5 Lightly flour a work surface. Knead dough until it is soft, supple, and slightly elastic, about 2 minutes. Pour a few drops of olive oil in a bowl. Transfer dough ball to the bowl and turn to coat surface with oil.
  6. 6 Cover bowl and place in a warm spot. Let dough rise until it has doubled in size, 60 to 90 minutes.
  7. 7 Transfer dough to a work surface and knead to remove air bubbles, about 1 minute. Transfer to a resealable plastic bag; refrigerate, 8 hours or overnight.
  8. 8 Lightly flour a work surface; dough may be sticky so make sure you use enough flour to keep dough from sticking to the surface or your hands (but less flour is best). Break off a piece of dough slightly smaller than a golf ball. Roll into a smooth ball. Flatten and roll out into a circle about 1/8-inch thick.
  9. 9 Invert a smooth mixing bowl on the work surface; lightly flour the bottom. Lightly stretch the dough and place the dough circle on the floured surface of the inverted bowl. Gently stretch dough evenly down the sides of the bowl, working your way around the edges, until it is very thin and translucent, or as thin as you can get it without tearing it.
  10. 10 Heat a cast iron skillet over high heat. Flour your hands and carefully remove the dough circle from the bottom of the bowl. Transfer to hot skillet. Cook until blisters form and begin to brown, about 45 to 60 seconds per side.

Instructions

  1. 1 Place yeast into the bowl of a large stand mixer; whisk in ½ cup flour and warm water until smooth. Set aside until mixture is foamy, 10 to 15 minutes.
  2. 2 Whisk 1 egg, melted butter, sugar, and salt thoroughly into yeast mixture. Add remaining flour (about 3 cups).
  3. 3 Knead dough in the bowl of the stand mixer fitted with the dough hook on low speed until soft and sticky, 5 to 6 minutes. Scrape sides if needed. Poke and prod dough with a silicone spatula; if large amounts of dough stick to the spatula, add a little more flour.
  4. 4 Transfer dough onto a floured work surface; dough will be sticky and elastic but should not stick to your fingers. Gently form dough into a smooth, round shape, tucking loose ends underneath.
  5. 5 Wipe out the stand mixer bowl; drizzle in olive oil. Place dough in the oiled bowl; flip several times until the surface is thinly coated with oil. Cover the bowl with aluminum foil; let dough rise in a warm place until doubled in volume, about 2 hours.
  6. 6 Line a baking sheet with a silicone mat or parchment paper.
  7. 7 Transfer dough to a floured work surface; pat to flatten any bubbles and form into a slightly rounded, 5x10-inch rectangle, about ½-inch thick.
  8. 8 Dust dough lightly with flour if needed; cut into eight equal pieces. Form each piece into a round shape; gently tuck ends underneath as before.
  9. 9 Gently pat and stretch dough rounds into flat, ½-inch-thick bun discs using your hands. Arrange buns about ½ inch apart on the prepared baking sheet. Dust buns very lightly with flour. Drape a piece of plastic wrap over the baking sheet (do not seal tightly). Let buns rise until doubled in volume, about 1 hour.
  10. 10 Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  11. 11 Beat remaining 1 egg and milk together in a small bowl, using a fork, until mixture is thoroughly combined. Very gently and lightly brush tops of buns with egg wash without deflating risen dough. Sprinkle buns with sesame seeds.
  12. 12 Bake in the preheated oven until lightly browned on tops, 15 to 17 minutes. Buns will stick together slightly where they touch. Cool completely. Tear buns apart. Slice in half crosswise to serve.
