Instructions
- 1
Add the dry yeast and granulated sugar to the warm water and wait 5 minutes, until foamy.
5 min05:00 - 2
Put the flour, salt, neutral oil, and yeasted water into a large bowl, then knead for 8 minutes until you have a smooth, soft dough.
8 min08:00 - 3
Cover and let rise in a warm place for 60 minutes, until doubled.
1 hr60:00 - 4
Deflate the dough, divide it into 2 equal pieces, and roll each into an oval.
- 5
Lightly mix the white cheese with tahini without fully blending it, so it stays marbled, then add the finely chopped parsley.
- 6
Spread the filling down the center of each pide, fold the edges to shape, and sprinkle sesame seeds on top.
- 7
Bake in a preheated 220°C oven for 14 minutes, until browned, and serve hot.
14 min14:00
💡 Tip: The dough should rise for at least 60 minutes, since a short fermentation weakens the open crumb. Do not blend the tahini fully into the cheese, leave the filling marbled.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Slice while hot and serve with ayran and a few tomato slices.
