The process starts with carefully grinding grain into flour using an electric mill. This step is essential to break the grain down into a fine, soft texture that’s perfect for baking. Once the flour is ready, it’s taken to a local bakery where skilled hands mix it with water, salt, and yeast.
In the bakery, the mixture is kneaded into dough, a step that takes care and attention to get the right texture. The dough is soft and stretchy, perfect for shaping into flat rounds. Before baking, the bakers make small holes on the surface, adding a traditional touch and helping the bread bake evenly.
The dough is then placed in a wood-fired oven, where the heat gives it a beautiful, rustic flavor. The bread is carefully baked until the top turns golden brown, crispy on the outside but soft inside.
