Bazlama Recipe

Bazlama

Bazlama; It is a type of bread made with sourdough in traditional Turkish Cuisine and baked on a sheet metal or in a pan. Less ingredients means more abundance for flatbread. Let it be cooked slowly on a sheet metal and become a meal. Whether it increases or decreases, whether it overflows or spills, enjoy your meal!

In a Nutshell:

Ingredients:

For: 4 People
Prep: 50 Min
Cook: 25 Min
Flour 8.5   Cup
Fresh Yeast (42 Grams) 1   Package
Yogurt 2   Cup
Granulated Sugar 1   Tsp (large)
Water 2   Cup
Salt 1   Tsp (large)
Butter 4   Tbsp

Steps:

  1. Warm up two glasses of water. Make a slurry of sugar, salt, yoghurt, yeast and water in a deep bowl and leave it for 15 minutes.
  2. When bubbles start to appear, slowly add the flour to the yeast water and mix until you get a dough as soft as an earlobe. Cover it with cling film and wrap it in a kitchen cloth.
  3. Take the well-fermented dough (at room temperature for about 1 hour) to the kneading board, knead for a few turns and take off the excess gas.
  4. Take the dough about the size of your palm and shape it into a flat and round shape with a width of 2 cm, the size of a tea plate. Shape the other dough in the same way.
  5. In a lean pan, cook your base glands up to 5 minutes until pink. Remove the cooked base on a paper towel or a napkin and cover it with a clean cloth and rest. Do not put it on top of each other so that they are not dough. Enjoy your meal !
  6. Note: If you have a sheet pan, you can also cook your flatbread on the sheet metal.
  7. Menu Recommendation: Ezo Bridal Soup, Bacon Bed Beans, Baslama Bread, Pickle, Flour Hallva

  • Flour: Flour is a fundamental foodstuff obtained by grinding grains. It provides our body with a long-lasting energy source, especially through complex carbohydrates. Varieties like whole wheat flour, thanks to their high fiber content, support digestive health, provide a feeling of fullness, and help stabilize blood sugar levels. It also contains essential B vitamins (especially B1, B3, B9) and important minerals such as iron and magnesium, which are crucial for nervous system functions, energy production, and blood formation. It is versatile in the kitchen; forming the base for baked goods like bread and pastries when combined with milk, eggs, and yeast, while also being used to thicken sauces or create harmonious flavors with vegetables.
  • Fresh Yeast: Fresh yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) is rich in B vitamins (B1, B2, B3, B5, B6), protein, and minerals (chromium, selenium). It supports the immune system and contributes to skin and nail health. With its prebiotic effect, it benefits the digestive system. It pairs wonderfully with natural ingredients like whole wheat flour and honey.
  • Yogurt: Yogurt, a fermented milk product, supports the digestive system and helps balance gut flora due to its rich probiotic content. This contributes to strengthening the immune system. It is also a high-quality source of protein and calcium, important for bone health and muscle development. With its slightly sour taste, it pairs perfectly with fruits, granola, or honey for breakfast. In main dishes, it adds flavor as the main component of cacık or various mezzes.
  • Butter: Butter is a rich, flavorful fat derived from milk. It contains fat-soluble vitamins like A, D, E, and K2, along with healthy fatty acids, serving as an energy source. It's easily digestible. Butter enhances the taste of meals and rice dishes, is spread on bread, or used in sauces. It's indispensable for breakfast tables and various recipes.
