Tomato Cumin Bread

  1. Combine the flour and 1 1/2 teaspoons of the salt in a bowl, add the water and stir until the mixture forms a dough.
  2. Turn out onto a lightly floured surface and knead on a lightly floured surface until smooth.
  3. Place in a clean bowl, cover and let stand 1 hour.
  4. Meanwhile, puree the butter, the remaining salt, the tomatoes, the cumin seeds and pepper in a food processor.
  5. Set aside.
  6. Divide dough into 12 pieces.
  7. Place on a floured surface and flatten each piece with the palm of your hand.
  8. Cover all but one piece with plastic wrap and set aside -- do not stack.
  9. Roll out the remaining piece into a 5 1/2-inch circle.
  10. Spread with a rounded half-teaspoon of the butter mixture.
  11. Roll up tightly, like a jelly roll, making a long strip.
  12. Starting at one end, tightly coil the strip, like a pinwheel.
  13. Repeat with the remaining dough, refrigerating the finished ones on a baking sheet lined with parchment if your kitchen is warm.
  14. Heat a large cast-iron skillet or griddle over medium heat.
  15. Working in batches, cook breads until browned and cooked through, about 1 1/2 to 2 minutes per side.
  16. Cut into quarters and serve hot.
