EKMEK TURKISH BREAD
Ekmek is a light and slightly sour flatbread that tastes wonderful with Havarti cheese. It uses a starter which ferments for 4 days. I recommend using a pizza stone to bake the loaves on. If you've no pizza stone, cookie sheets will work also. The recipe seems complicated, but it's a lot easier than it appears.

Steps:
- To make the starter: Place 1/2 cup flour and 1/4 cup water in a coverable bowl; stir well. Cover and let sit at room temperature overnight. The next day, add 1/2 cup flour and 1/4 cup water to the bowl. Cover and let sit at room temperature overnight. On the third day, add 1/2 cup flour and 1/4 cup water to the bowl. Cover and let sit at room temperature overnight.
- To make the dough: In a large bowl, dissolve the yeast and sugar in the warm water. Let stand until creamy, about 10 minutes.
- Break the starter into small pieces and add it to the yeast mixture. Stir in 4 cups of flour and the salt. Stir in the remaining flour, 1/2 cup at a time, beating well after each addition. When the dough has pulled together, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 8 minutes. Sprinkle a little flour over the dough and then cover it with a dry cloth. Let it raise until double in size.
- Put the dough back onto a lightly floured work surface and punch out the air. Divide the dough in half and knead each piece for 2 to 3 minutes. Shape each piece into a tight oval loaf. Sprinkle two sheet pans with corn meal. Roll and stretch two loaf until they are 15x12 inch ovals. Dust the tops of the loaves with flour. Cover with a dry cloth and let raise in a warm place until doubled in size. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
- Bake in preheated oven for 30 to 40 minutes. Mist with water 3 times in the first 15 minutes. Loaves are done when their bottoms sound hollow when tapped. Let cool on wire racks before serving.

TURKISH BREAD OR EKMEK
This is such a wonderful Turkish bread. I can't remember where got this recipe, but I've made it and it's simply lovely. You can stuff in your fave fillings (my family loves spinach, turkey slice and cheese, so that's what I always stuff it with)

Steps:
- If you are using ready "ekmek kadayıfı," you have to wet it down first with boiling water to soften it. Begin by placing the "kadayıf" browned-side-down in a shallow, round tray of the same size. Pour enough boiling water over the bread to cover it, and let it rest for 15 minutes.
- When time is up, remove the wet bread, and place it on a clean towel or a thick layer of folded paper towels.
- Wring out the extra water by pressing down on the bread evenly. Let it rest on the towel for a few minutes. Discard the water in the tray and put the moistened bread back inside.
- Using a sharp knife, cut a large cross shape at the center of the moistened bread. This will help the syrup penetrate. Place the metal tray on the stove over low heat. Slowly drizzle the syrup over the top. Turn the tray around over the burner to help the bread absorb the syrup evenly.
- Put the sugar in a large pan, and let it melt slowly over medium heat. Let it caramelize until it turns a dark honey color. Add the water, and bring it to a boil.
- Once it boils, add the lemon juice. Let the syrup simmer gently for about 10 minutes then turn off the heat. The syrup should be thick and the color of light honey.
- All the bread should become saturated with the syrup which will cause it to darken. When all the syrup is completely absorbed, remove the tray from the heat, and let it cool down.
- To serve, cut the "ekmek kadayıfı" in squares or triangles. The traditional way to garnish it is to put a thick layer of clotted cream between two layers of bread, but you can also put it on top instead. Sprinkle the top of the dessert with crushed nuts.
