Oh boy, do I have a recipe for all you beautiful people out there! We're making some MEDIUM ARABIC BREAD today, and let me tell you, it's going to be delicious. Don't believe me? Just take a look at that . Beautiful, isn't it?
Ingredients
First things first, let's get all our ingredients together. We're going to need:
- 3 cups of flour
- 2 teaspoons of dry active yeast
- 1 teaspoon of salt
- 1 tablespoon of sugar
- 1 and 1/4 cups of warm water
Tools
Now that we have our ingredients, let's gather up all our tools so we can get started:
- Mixing bowl
- Wooden spoon
- Rolling pin
- Baking sheet
- Parchment paper
How to Make
Alright, let's get cooking! Follow these steps:
- In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, yeast, salt, and sugar. Mix them together until they're all evenly distributed.
- Add the warm water to the bowl and mix it together until you have a sticky dough.
- Knead the dough for about 5-10 minutes until it's smooth and elastic. This is where you get your workout in for the day, folks.
- Once you've kneaded the dough, place it into a clean bowl and cover it with a damp towel. Let it rest for about an hour in a warm, draft-free place. This is where the magic happens and the dough rises.
- Preheat your oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Roll out the dough using your rolling pin on a clean, floured surface. Roll it out to about 1/4 inch in thickness.
- Place the rolled-out dough onto your baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Poke the dough all over with a fork to prevent it from puffing up too much while baking.
- Bake the bread for about 10-12 minutes, or until it's golden brown.
- Take it out of the oven and let it cool for a few minutes.
- Serve your delicious homemade Arabic bread warm with your favorite herbs or dipping sauces. Yum!
Tips
If you want to take your Arabic bread game to the next level, try adding in some spices or herbs to the dough before baking. Try rosemary, thyme, or oregano for a savory twist or try cinnamon and sugar for a sweeter flavor.
Note
Remember, practice makes perfect when it comes to baking bread. Don't get discouraged if your first attempt doesn't come out perfectly. Keep trying and tweaking the recipe until it's just right for you. Good luck, and happy baking!
