BACO Bread

[EGGARY]

There is a restaurant in Downtown LA called BACO MERCAT.  The Chef makes this Baco bread for sandwiches.  It's a Flatbread.  Tried making for the first time.  As always, the first time is the learning experience.

The second time will be better for sure.

EGGARY, this morning I decided to try the Baco Bread recipe for which you posted the link.

Decided that I'd do half a batch. I really wish they had measured the ingredients using weights instead of volume especially for the flour. My dough was very wet and sticky so I added more flour. For the half batch I used 215 g and the next time I'll weigh all the ingredients and that will make things a lot easier.

Get the tools out to make the rolling easy.

Baked on the Baking Steel over the stove burner. Just look at the bubbling.:)

First one flipped after 30 sec., just a tad early.

Tasted.

 

Thanks, EGGARY for posting this link.

Thanks, Steve. They are nice and soft and should make nice sandwiches.

Other than the yogurt, looks like a pita. Is the taste and texture like pita or something different?

My pita bread is crisp and this bread is soft and pliable.
