Lavosh
- 1 package yeast, active dry active, dry
- 1 1/2 teaspoons sugar
- 1 cup water warm 115 f
- 2 tablespoons water warm 115 f
- 3 cups flour, all-purpose
- 2 ounces butter melted
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds white, or poppy seeds
- 1 x onions chopped
- Pour the yeast into a clean, small, shallow bowl.
- Add 1 teaspoon of the sugar and 1/4 cup of the warm water.
- Let the mixture stand for 2 to 3 minutes, then stir to dissolve the yeast completely.
- Place the bowl in a warm, draft-free place for 5 to 10 minutes or until the mixture looks foamy and has almost doubled in volume.
- Measure your flour into a mixing bowl, and make a well in the center of the flour.
- Pour the yeast mixture into this center depression, and then add the remaining water, sugar, and melted butter to the yeast.
- Mix the ingredients well with a spoon until a soft, spongy dough is formed.
- Cover the bowl loosely with a warm, damp cloth, and return it to the warm, draft-free spot until the dough again doubles in volume, about 45 minutes.
- Preheat your oven to 350F (180C).
- When the dough has risen, place it on a lightly floured surface and divide it into six equal parts.
- With a lightly floured rolling pin, roll each part into a flat round about 1/4 inch thick.
- Place 2 or 3 rounds on each of two or three cookie sheets.
- Rub the surface of the rounds lightly with cool water, and sprinkle each with 1/2 teaspoon sesame seeds, or other topping.
- The water will basically help the toppings to adhere to the rounds when baked.
- Bake the rounds in the oven on the bottom rack for about 20 minutes or until the breads are a pale golden brown.
- (Bake breads in shifts if oven size does not allow entire recipe to be baked at once.)
- With a spatula, transfer the breads to a wire rack to cool.
- Breads will keep several days if stored in a dry, air-tight place.
