Ingredients You’ll Need to make Turkish
4 cups of high-quality bread flour
1 tablespoon of sugar
1 tablespoon of salt
1 tablespoon of active dry yeast
1.5 cups of warm water
2 tablespoons of olive oil
Step 1: Activate the Yeast Magic
Begin by activating the yeast. Dissolve it in warm water with a pinch of sugar, and let it sit until it froths. This sets the foundation for the bread’s exquisite texture.
Step 2: Flour Power
In a large mixing bowl, combine the bread flour and salt. Pour in the activated yeast mixture and olive oil. Knead the dough until it becomes smooth and elastic.
Step 3: Rise to Greatness
Allow the dough to rise in a warm place, covered with a damp cloth, until it doubles in size. This step is crucial for that airy, fluffy texture characteristic of authentic Turkish Bread.
Step 4: Shape and Bake
Divide the dough into equal portions and shape them into rounds. Place them on a baking sheet, allowing for some space between each. Let them rise again while preheating your oven.
Bake until the bread achieves a golden-brown perfection, emanating an irresistible aroma throughout your kitchen.
Enjoy.
