Follow these steps for perfect results
all-purpose flour
semolina
plus extra for dusting
salt
warm water
In a bowl, mix together the all-purpose flour, semolina, and salt.
Gradually add warm water until a smooth, easily shaped dough forms, ensuring it's not sticky or too stretchy.
Note that the water amount may vary depending on the flour and weather conditions.
Place a baking sheet or plaque au four in the oven to preheat.
If using a baking sheet, invert it to simplify sliding the bread on and off.
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
Divide the dough into 10 equal-sized small balls.
Cover the dough balls with a towel and let them rest for approximately 15 minutes.
On a lightly floured surface, roll each dough ball to a very thin thickness, approximately just under 1/16 of an inch.
Place each rolled-out round onto a heavily floured peel and carefully slide it onto the preheated baking sheet or plaque au four in the oven.
Bake each round for about 2 1/2 minutes on each side.
Closely monitor the bread as it bakes, as it can burn easily once it starts to bubble.
Turn each round over and bake for an additional 2 1/2 minutes.
When the bread is lightly golden with darker highlights, remove it from the oven and transfer it to a wire rack to cool.
Repeat the process until all the dough rounds are baked.
Once cooled, store the bread in an airtight container for up to 2 to 3 weeks.
To refresh before serving, place the bread back in the oven for 2 minutes to restore its crispness.
