I got inspired to make hummus, baba ghannouj, and khobiz all from scratch for dinner. So light. So soft.
Khoubiz:
1/2 cup WARM water
2 tsp ACTIVE DRY Yeast (not INSTANT)
1 lb BREAD Flour
1 tsp Salt
1 cup WARM milk
1. Heat oven, with baking/pizza/bread stone on the bottom to 500 degrees F (!!!)
2. Combine warm water with yeast. Let set ~ 10 mins, to ensure yeast is still alive. Should bubble at the top when ready.
3. Add yeast mixture, and milk to flour and salt. Mix together until it comes together as a ball of dough.
4. Knead on a floured surface until silken smooth (not sticky, or even tacky). Place in an oiled bowl, cover ~1 hour until dough doubles in size.
5. Punch down dough, divide into 10 equal parts (~2.5 oz each). Flatten to 6 inch rounds, about 1/8 inch thick.
6. Place rounds on baking/pizza/bread stone until puffy. Flip to brown other side. Can be done in batches of making rounds, and placing on stone.*
*Tip: To prevent the bread from sticking to your stone, after flattening bread, dust a very light layer of flour on each side by taking a pinch of flour, and smoothing it across the surface. The flour will adhere to any part that would still be sticky enough to stick to the stone.
