It looks beautiful, smells delicious and is soft. The dough was extremely sticky and a little hard to work with but otherwise came out great!

As far as the autolyse, I can't remember why I skipped it, but it worked! If you are using freshly ground flour, I'd probably do the autolyse. FYI - these are great cooked on a stone on a grill.

Better than Saveur's, I have to agree.<br /><br />Comparing it to the source recipe however, I'd like to know your thought process for changing the process. I'm curious more specifically about why you chose to skip the autolyse process and shortened the proof time from 90 to 30 minutes. Also why you omitted the oil. <br /><br />Thanks!Roscoenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2524738745087776965.post-83214359373737464912018-04-08T08:23:04.492-07:002018-04-08T08:23:04.492-07:00I'm so glad you liked it... and how fun is tha...I'm so glad you liked it... and how fun is that!!!

I am curious though because the bread we get fresh in Cairo is very large and stretchy in texture which seems hard to achieve with whole wheat flour unless gluten is added. Maybe this is unnecessary though because it seems that Egyptians Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03029956885928628329noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2524738745087776965.post-41474996371442561322017-07-16T22:48:31.878-07:002017-07-16T22:48:31.878-07:00Awwww.
