The Summer of '05: Food from the Bible

Food from the Bible

Unleavened Bread

Bedouin nomads still eat this, and it's very similar to the various flatbreads found all over the world.

Mix in a bowl:

1 cup flour
1/4 tsp of cumin or coriander
1/4 tsp of salt

Gradually mix in 1/2 cup of water. Then, knead the dough for 5 to 10 minutes or until the dough is supple and elastic. Cover the bowl and dough with a damp cloth, and leave it for 30 minutes.

After 30 minutes, roll the dough into balls. Flatten each ball and flour each side. Roll the dough with a rolling pin until the dough is very thin and flat.

Heat a flat pan or griddle. Place the flat dough on the pan. Brown each side while continuously moving the bread around the pan. You'll more or less know when it's cooked.

The kneading and rolling part is very messy. Make sure to flour your hands, the area where you're rolling the dough, and the rolling pin often. It's quite sticky.

The bread is delicious and will go very well with hummus or any dip of your choice. You can actually eat it with anything. You can even make burritos with it if you want. I, however, ate it with aioli. Aioli is basically garlic mayonnaise. You can make your own, but it's very tricky. If you loved Chem, go for it.
