We got this as an additional starter - lentil flatbread with a leek pate, tomato jam and cranberry hummus. The jam was probably my favorite here - nice flavors to start the meal.
This oven is in the yard of the house. If someone lights the fire in the larger oven, quite often the other village women will come and use it too, rather than lighting their own.
FINALLY I have made something that involves yeast!! Maybe there's hope for Grandma's rolls yet... I have been craving rosemary flatbread since getting some at the market in Indiana... not going to be back there for a Saturday for a while so I had to do it myself. I found a recipe on marthastewart.com and decided to give it a go.
It took me three tries and an additional trip to the grocery store for new yeast to get it to activate. That's tricky stuff... I was so excited when I saw that my dough had doubled in just an hour - SO excited. It's the little things, I know! I tried a few with pepper, but like the salt and rosemary only the best. I do need to figure out how to get them a little thinner, but for a first try ... amazing!!
This daily oven baked flatbread was delicious. My favourite breakfast was Alexandria Foul (a broad bean mix which looks awful but tastes great) with spices, flatbread and a couple of boiled eggs. Along with plenty of coffee.
House made pizza dough rolled thin, brushed w/ xvoo and grilled. Topped w/ parmesan cheese, minted ricotta, cherry peppers, home-made lamb sausage, feta and parmesan. Finished with fresh mint.
