Poppy Seed and Rosemary Flatbread image

Based on a recipe from Harrowsmith. This is a flatbread with no yeast- much like a cracker. Wonderful with hummus, tsatziki etc. or served with soup. Best eaten within 24 hours or frozen. A pasta machine and pizza stone produce superior results.

Time 42m

Yield 16 flatbreads

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 cups flour
2 tablespoons fresh rosemary, chopped fine
1 tablespoon poppy seed
1 teaspoon coarse salt
1 teaspoon fresh ground pepper (optional)
3/4 cup water
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Combine flour, rosemary, poppy seeds, salt and pepper in a large bowl.
  • Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and add olive oil and water.
  • Blend the flour mixture into the water and oil gently, using your hands.
  • Turn the dough onto a work surface and knead for a couple of minutes, until smooth.
  • Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour.
  • Place a pizza stone onto bottom rack of oven and preheat to 450.
  • Take a small chunk of dough (about golf ball size) and roll very thin, either by hand or with pasta machine- preferable- I go to notch 5 on the machine.
  • Transfer to pizza stone.
  • You should be able to fit 4 on the stone at one time.
  • Bake 8-12 minutes or until crisp and golden.
  • Cool slightly and brush with a bit of olive oil and sprinkle with kosher salt.
  • Store in an airtight container.
