LEPINJE (PITA BREAD) (BOSNIA HERZEGOVINA)



Lepinje (Pita Bread) (Bosnia Herzegovina) image

This recipe was featured on week 33 of my food blog, "Travel by Stove." I am attempting to cook on meal from every nation on Earth, and Bosnia Herzegovina is my 33rd stop. Unless otherwise noted, my Travel by Stove recipes are taken from authentic or traditional sources, and this recipe has been posted without any alternations or additions to the ingredients. Lepinje is a traditional Bosnian pita bread. I made mine to go with cevapi, a lamb/beef sausage.

Categories     Breads

Time 2h5m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 cups bread flour
2 1/2 teaspoons active dry yeast
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon sugar
water (about 1 cup, but only add enough to make the dough a slightly sticky texture)

Steps:

  • Proof the yeast with the sugar and about 1/2 cup of lukewarm water. Meanwhile, mix the dry ingredients in a large bowl.
  • When the yeast is foamy, pour it into the flour with another 1/2 cup of water (approximately, stop when the dough is the right texture. You may need more or less water). Mix well. Your dough should be a little bit sticky.
  • Turn out onto a floured surface and knead for five minutes. Shape into a ball and place in a large bowl greased with olive oil. Cover with plastic wrap and a towel, and let rise in a warm place for an hour or so, or until doubled in size.
  • Put the dough back on the floured surface and punch down. Knead again for another minute, then divide into four balls. Brush with olive oil and let rest for 10 or 15 minutes.
  • Roll the dough balls with a floured rolling pin until they are roughly the thickness of an extra-thick pizza crust.
  • Transfer the dough to a greased baking sheet and brush with a bit more olive oil. Cover with plastic wrap and a towel and let rest for another half hour or so.
  • Meanwhile, preheat your oven to 400 degrees. When the dough has rested remove the towel and plastic and put it in the oven.
  • Bake for 10 minutes, then reduce the heat to 350 degrees and bake for another 5-10 minutes.

LEPINJA (BALKAN FLATBREAD)



Lepinja (Balkan Flatbread) image

I had a Croatian coworker who would bake this anytime we had a celebration at work. I finally got her to share her recipe with me. I've had to tweak it quite a bit because some ingredients she doesn't measure and of those she does, she uses metrics.

Categories     Flat Bread

Time 2h50m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 (.25 ounce) package active dry yeast
2 tablespoons warm milk (110 to 115 degrees F)
1 cup warm water (110 to 115 degrees F)
1 tablespoon white sugar
2 ⅓ cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Sprinkle the yeast over the warm milk in a small bowl. Let stand for 5 minutes until the yeast softens and begins to form a creamy foam. Stir the warm water and sugar into the yeast mixture.
  • Stir the flour and salt together in a separate bowl; add all but about 1/2 cup of the flour mixture to the yeast mixture; mix with your hands until a soft dough forms, adding the last of the flour mixture a little at a time until it clears the sides of the bowl. Cover the bowl with a light cloth and let the dough rise in a warm place (80 to 95 degrees F (27 to 35 degrees C)) until doubled in volume, about 1 hour.
  • Deflate, or 'punch down,' the dough and turn out onto a work surface lightly dusted with flour; knead for about 5 minutes. Return the dough to the bowl, cover again with a light cloth, and allow the dough to again rise until doubled in volume, about 30 minutes more.
  • Preheat an oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Lightly grease a baking sheet.
  • Deflate the dough and turn turn out onto a work surface lightly dusted with flour; knead lightly. Place the dough onto the prepared baking sheet; shape into an oval about 1/2-inch thick. Set aside to rise a third time for about 30 minutes.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until nicely browned and hollow sounding when thumped, 20 to 25 minutes.
