How to Make Boyoz Recipe: Traditional Izmir Bread

Step 1

First, sift the flour twice so that there are no impurities in it and it is completely soft and uniform. Then add oil to it and mix. Add enough salt to the flour and stir.

Step 2

Add water to the flour step by step and stir until it becomes a good dough. If your dough is too stiff, add some water or if it sticks to your hands, add flour to it. Make sure the dough is not sticky at all.

Step 3

Knead the dough for 5 minutes and form it into a ball and cover it with a cloth for 25 minutes to rest.

Step 4

After the time has passed, divide the dough into four parts and form it into a ball again and cover it with a cloth to rest for 10 minutes.

Step 5

At this stage, spread each ball of dough to the size of a plate and cover the surface of the dough with butter. Spread the next ball of dough in the same size as the previous one and place it on the dough and butter. Press the dough together with your hands all around. Prepare two more balls of dough in the same way and cover them with plastic again to rest for 10 minutes.

Step 6

You need a large, flat surface for this part. Spread the dough very, very thinly on that surface and place it on top of each other and spread it again. At the end of collecting them, roll them up and divide them into two or three parts and attach them together in a spiral and press them with your middle two fingers.

Step 7

Preheat the oven to 180 degrees and put the loaves in it for 20 minutes. After cooling, remove them from the oven tray and eat them with tea and boiled eggs.
