I grew up in Rehovot which is known for the Yemenite population. I love their cuisine and I have many memories of eating the traditional dishes with my friends when we were younger. This is a Yemenite flatbread, traditionally made in a taboun oven- the wet dough would be slapped against the taboun wall, and you knew the pita was ready when it fell off. But because most of us don't have a taboun oven at home and not an electric pan (which cooks the pita from the top as well) I created this version on a pan with a lid. This Pita is 100% hydration + the oil, we get about 114% hydration. It's nuts! So it is important to handle the dough with wet hands only, otherwise, it will stick to you every single time you touch it. Saluf is a very interesting dough, super delicious, and once dipped in grated tomatoes and Shug?! WOW!!

Making this now, and as someone who makes sourdough bread loaves I panic cause the dough starts super hydrated but I am calming out as I go haha. Excited about the final result.
