Flatbread

Carmelized Onion and Apple Pizza

Posted Fri, 12/17/2010 - 14:54 by Jon

Adapted from http://find.myrecipes.com/recipes/recipefinder.dyn?action=displayRecipe&... , we replaced the filo dough with a thin pizza crust, baked it as one large sheet, and cut it apart after baking. This cuts down on a lot of the per-piece work.

We also spread some olive oil on the crust before placing the topping on top.

Arepa

Posted Tue, 08/25/2009 - 11:51 by Jon

The Arepa is the Venezuelan staple, and their version of meat-in-bread. They're very filling, if hard to get the flour for. Online, Amigo Foods offers it (Harina P.A.N.), and often you can find it at more Latin-oriented groceries (Austin: Fiesta almost always has it. In DC, I've found it at La Casa Latina on Georgia near Piney Branch and at Caribbean Market II on New Hampshire near Takoma Park)

In a bowl, combine the flour, shortening and salt. Using your fingers, cut with strong fork until the mixture looks crumbly. Mix in the warm water until the ingredients come together in a ball. Knead the dough in the bowl until smooth, about 3 minutes.

Naan

Indian meal with Naan

These naan are nice and buttery and go great with all indian foods. Easy to prepare ahead of time and refrigerate. The texture's not quite right (probably due to my lack of a tandoor), but they're still pretty excellent.
