Ingredients—Dough
· 1 3/4 cup warm water
· 1 teaspoon active dry yeast
· 2 tablespoon oil (mild tasting)
· 4 cups bread flour
· 1/4 cup whole wheat flour
· 3 teaspoon salt
Instructions
1) Place your yeast, warm water and oil in a bowl. Allow to sit for 5-10 minutes. Add your flours and salt to the yeast mixture, and mix the ingredients until a dough forms, getting all the flour that might be on the sides of the bowl. Using your hands, knead for 4 minutes until the dough is pliable.
2) Place in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a cloth and allow to rise for one hour. Remove from the bowl, fold each side towards the middle to form a round, flip upside down, then place back in the bowl and rest for an hour. Repeat the folding again, and then rise for a final time for at least 2 hours.
3) Preheat your oven and the sheet pan to 260 degrees. Set a timer for an hour. Create a log shape with the dough and cut into eight equal parts, knead each piece into a ball, then roll thinly until they are around 8” in diameter.
4) Once the hour of oven heating has elapsed. Put two or three on the sheet at a time. They will take anywhere between 30 seconds to 2 minutes to puff up and cook / brown. Once one side is almost fully brown use tongs to flip it over and cook the other side. Place cooked bread on to a plate and cover with a clean cloth
