12 SERVING

Ingredients:

15 cup Wheat flour
3 tbsp. Salt
1 tbsp. Instant yeast
2 tbsp. Sugar
5 1/4 cup Warm water or milk
2 Eggs, for making egg wash
1/4 cup Sesame seeds for topping

Directions:

Sift freshly ground whole wheat flour in a large bowl. Dig a well in the centre.

Add salt, yeast, sugar into the well. Mix the liquids into the flour, then knead it for 10 minutes until it feels smooth and stretchy. Cover and let it rise until it is doubled. This may take any time between 40 minutes and 2 hours, depending on your room temperature.

Divide the dough into 12 equal pieces, shape each piece into a ball, cover and proof for 15-20 minutes.

After the proofing is done, press down to flatten into round disks, to about 6 inches wide, making the centers thinner than the outer parts. Use a glass to add patterns. Prickle the center with a fork will prevent the center from puffing up during baking.
