Lavash

Since I've needed to cut down on my carbs these days, I'm going for whole grain, sourdoughs, or flatbreads like Naan, Pita, and now Lavash.

Armenian Lavash is easy to make and it is great for a flatbread pizza, wrap, or anything else where you need to substitue a yeast-free bread.

Dissolve 1 1/2 T of table salt in 1 C hot water.
Add 3 C of flour to your mixer with the dough hook attached.
Make a well in the center of the flour and add about 1/3 of the salt water.
Begin to mix slowly and add the remaining water in a drizzle as you go.
Allow it to knead just until it pulls away from the bowl.
    
Cover and let rest 20 minutes.  Then divide into egg sized pieces and roll out flat to the diameter of your skillet.







I'm using a cast iron pan to do so.



Cook each side until browned, a few minutes on each side.


Once cooked,  you can make many things, but I made flatbread pizza.  Drizzle some EVOO, cheeses, fresh basil and toast until cheese melts.
