Pani Guttiau Recipe

Preparation Directions

1. 1

   Mixing the Dough

   In a large mixing bowl, dissolve the fresh yeast in warm water. Add the all-purpose flour and salt, and mix until a sticky dough forms.

2. 2

   Kneading

   Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for about 10 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.

3. 3

   First Rising

   Place the kneaded dough in a greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until it has doubled in size.

4. 4

   Shaping the Bread

   Once risen, punch down the dough to release air. Divide it into equal portions and shape them into flat rounds, about 1 cm thick.

5. 5

   Preheating the Oven

   Preheat your oven to 220°C (428°F). If you have a pizza stone, place it in the oven to heat as well.

6. 6

   Baking

   Brush each flat bread with extra virgin olive oil and sprinkle with grated Pecorino cheese. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.

7. 7

   Cooling

   Remove the flat bread from the oven and let it cool slightly on a wire rack before serving.
