Georgian flat bread that cracks in the mouth (Photo: Alon Mesika)

I like to make this Georgian-style flat bread, which has a crunchy texture on the outside and soft on the inside, especially when I don't have much energy.

It doesn't require a lot of work or rolling, it's easy to open with your hands and its great, crispy texture is worth everything.

* It is recommended to use bread flour, but not mandatory.

*The addition of the vinegar makes it possible to create a dough that is flexible and easy to work with.

*Dipping the dough in water before baking creates the crispy coating and allows you to flatten it easily in the pan with your hands.

*The "paths" along the length of the bread, which also contribute to its crispiness along with its flat shape, are easily created by dipping the fingers along its length.

  Dip each ball of dough in water and flatten with your hands on a pan lined with baking paper - two loaves will fit in each pan.

  With the help of your fingers, create a kind of paths in the dough - press your fingers along it (see picture).
