O Que Você Precisa Saber

- Ground flaxseed adds nutrient density without preventing the formation of the elasticity needed for the bread to rise. - The thin opening with the rolling pin into uniform discs is indispensable so that the heat produces steam and separates the layers. - The very hot oven at 200°C ensures express cooking of 15 minutes keeping the dough malleable and easy to fold.

Ingredients

3 cups of whole wheat flour
1/2 cup of ground flaxseed
1 tablespoon of brown sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon of dry active yeast
1 and 1/4 cups of warm water
2 tablespoons olive oil
For an even more intensified flavor, add fine herbs to the batter.
Use a thermometer to ensure the water is at the ideal temperature for the yeast.

Instructions

Main Course

In a bowl, mix the flour, flaxseed, sugar, and salt.

In another container, dilute the yeast in warm water and let it rest for 5 minutes.

Add the water mixture to the dry ingredients and mix well.

Incorporate the olive oil and knead the dough for about 10 minutes until it is homogeneous.

Cover the dough with a cloth and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour.

After rising, divide the dough into 10 portions and roll out with a rolling pin.

Place the portions on parchment paper on the baking sheet.

Let the breads rest for another 20 minutes.

Preheat the oven to 200°C.

Bake the breads for about 15-20 minutes or until they are slightly golden.

Remove from the oven and let it cool before serving.

Chef Tips

- Grind the flaxseed at the time of preparation to preserve the essential oils and prevent oxidation of the beneficial compounds. - Use a well-heated baking sheet or refractory stone to transfer instant heat to the base of the dough discs. - Remove from the oven as soon as they inflate and brown very lightly; if overbaked, the bread turns into a crumbly toast.

Variations

- Pita bread with za'atar: sprinkle za'atar seasoning mixed with olive oil over the discs before putting them in the oven to bake. - Garlic version: add 1 finely grated garlic clove to the warm water to gently perfume the entire dough. - Crunchy pita chips: Cut the cold breads into triangles, drizzle with olive oil and salt, and bake until crispy.

Substitutions

- Ground golden flaxseed can be replaced by brown flaxseed or ground sesame seeds in the same amount. - Brown sugar can be swapped for sugarcane molasses or demerara sugar to activate the dry biological yeast. - Olive oil can be replaced by sunflower oil or corn oil without prejudice to the structure of the bread.

How to Store

After cooling, store the breads immediately inside hermetically sealed plastic bags for up to 4 days at room temperature so they maintain moisture and remain flexible. Avoid contact with dry air so they do not harden.

Can You Freeze It?

Stack the cooled rolls interspersed with parchment paper and pack in a thermal bag for up to 90 days in the freezer. To thaw, pass directly to a dry pan over medium heat for 1 minute on each side until it puffs and warms up.

What to Serve With

Ideal for filling with hummus, baba ganoush, fresh tomato slices, white cheese, and greens in rolled sandwiches. It serves perfectly to accompany meals with grilled meats, labneh, and traditional tabbouleh.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do some pita breads not inflate in the oven?
