Turkish Pide

Dough (8 Pides)

In a measuring up mix:

  • 180g Water
  • 180g Milk
  • 7g Dried Active Yeast
  • 5g Sugar

In another bowl add:

  • 500g Flour (I did a mix of bread 250g, all purpose 200g, and 00 Tipo 50g) Could do all of any one of these flours 
  • 7g Salt
  • Add the yeast milk/water mixture.

Mix until dough is soft (should be soft and well shaped but also a little tacky, its a high moisture dough) 


Split dough into 8 equal dough balls. 

Place on floured parchment paper. Flour the balls and cover with cloth and let rise fo 1-1.5 hours.


Once dough has doubled transfer one ball onto a your working surface ad roll out into an oval shape


Preheat oven to 450 degrees F


Spread dough out as thin as possible without taring

  • Add toppings in the middle
  • Fold over edges and pinch the ends closing any openings
  • Transfer pide to parchment lined baking sheet (makes it easier for transferring in and out of oven)
  • Bake until edges of pide are golden brown, blistered and cheese has melted



Toppings

  • Traditional toppings are sujouk, pastirma, cheese, spinach.
  • Can top with anything, I added salami, mozzarella cheese, mushrooms and bell peppers
