Our recipe today will be dedicated to Turkish flatbread , a tribute to Turkish gastronomy. A type of gastronomy highlighted by its habitual use of spices and with a high influence of Mediterranean cuisine, normally using olive oil in most recipes. This Turkish bread has black sesame and flaked salt , a magical Turkish touch that adds a special flavor. Black sesame is very rich in unsaturated fatty acids and provides a high amount of calcium, it also has proteins, iron and zinc. Additionally, Turkish flatbread contains yeast which makes it a little different compared to other flatbread recipes. It is a golden brown bread, so don't forget to brush the bread with egg yolk before putting it in the oven. Now grab a pencil and paper because we begin our recipe:TURKISH FLAT PLAN
