Ramazan Pidesi

cook:

This bread is a traditional leavened Turkish pita usually served during meals throughout the month of Ramadan. Ramadan is the ninth month of the Islamic calendar in which Muslims from all over the world fast from sunrise to sunset every day for 30 days. Every day's fast ends with a meal with all family and this bread is one of the symbols of that tradition. It supposed to be eaten while still hot so make sure you start to work on that dough 2-3 hours before the sunset! I have to say it is one of the most beautiful breads I've ever made. And it is so delicious, wow!

Directions

Step 1

In a bowl- mix the milk, yeast, and sugar.

240 ml lukewarm milk

10 gr dry yeast

30 gr sugar

Bowl

Step 2

Add the oil and stir well.

35 ml vegetable oil

Step 3

Mix the flour and salt. Add them to the dough slowly. A third of the amount each time.

10 gr salt

420 gr flour

Step 4

Once you added all the flour in, keep working the dough on a working surface. If it is too sticky you can use a little bit of flour for dusting. A little bit!!

Step 5

After kneading the dough for 5-7 min it should be elastic and beautiful. Cover with a towel and let the dough rest until double in size.

Step 6

Spread coarse corn mill on a baking tray. It will prevent the dough to stick to the pan and will give it an extra crust.

Step 11

Dip your fingers in the brushing mix and create a circular edge to the pita (like a pizza crust).

Step 12

Then, still dipping your fingers in the brushing mix, create long parallel lines with your fingers along the center of the pita.

Step 13

Then turn the pita and create more lines to form a diamond shape (like in baklava).
