LAVASH BREAD (YEASTLESS ARMENIAN FLATBREAD)

Steps:

• Whisk flour and salt together and add to a standing mixer.
• Using a dough hook, slowly drizzle warm water over the flour mixture while the machine is running.
• Mix until the dough comes together, scraping the sides of the bowl when necessary. If needed, add a few additional tablespoons of warm water to wet the dry flour on the bottom of the bowl.
• Once the dough comes together, cover it with saran wrap and place in a warm location for an hour.
• After one hour, stretch the dough from the outside edges towards the center. Do this all the way around the dough ball then flip the dough over and form into a smooth ball.
• Cover the bowl back up and allow the dough to rest for 30 minutes. Repeat this process one additional time.
