    Joe, there used to be a restaurant called Red Savoy’s in the twin cities I think? They made a flat bread style pizza which sounds like what you want to make? Not sure what your mom put on her flat bread but this is how we make it. I own and operate several restaurants in the Austin area serving a flat bread style pizza similar to what you’re interested in making. Sure hope you try this version, I think you’ll be happy...and of course no offense to your mom. Recipes follows:
    - 4 cups AP flour
    -1/2 tsp. Instant yeast
    -1 tsp. sugar
    - 1TBLSP salt
    - 1 1/3 cups water
    - 1/4 oil (your choice)
    *Add all dry ingredients to bowl. Mix dry ingredients just to combine.
    *No need to bloom yeast before using.
    *Next add water and oil to bowl with dry ingredients, mix until it forms a shaggy dough.
    *Cover bowl and let dough rest 45 mins.
    *After resting, take mixture out of bowl and mix/knead until ball is formed. Mixture will feel a bit dry but that’s ok.
    * Place dough into an oiled bowl cover and let rest at least 3 hrs. The best option is to make dough the day/night before using. We make it before closing and let it do it’s bulk rise in cooler overnight. This is the best way to develop flavor and texture of your flat bread dough.
    * if you do the 3 hr. version no need to refrigerate.
    *After the bulk rise divide dough into 2 equal parts, let dough balls rest covered on your counter for and additional 30 minutes. At this time preheat your oven to 400F and grease your bake pan. If you want you can dust the greased pan with cornmeal for added texture but this optional and not required.
    * Take one the dough balls and either by hand or rolling pin work into rectangular shape to fit pan. If you want to press the dough in by hand this is ok too, you may have to let dough rest for 15-20 min. increments to relax the dough to fit pan.
    -Bake at 400 until dough pulls away from sides of pan 9-12 mins.
    - take butter or olive oil brush top of flat bread, then sprinkle garlic powder, salt and dried oregano on top of flat bread...amount of each is up to you.
    Cut with pizza wheel or kitchen sheers.
    # Couple of things, using less yeast, less water and AP flour help to keep the dough from rising too much. Less rise means a crispier crust. The other tip is using a TBLSP of salt, not only will it make the end product taste better, salt retards the rising action of yeast. Last point, making the dough the night before provides for a “slow rise” which all of the restaurants use, a technique which ensures great flavor and texture.
    Sorry for the long post, I just wanted to share this recipe with your and your subscribers. It’s not difficult to make as long as you give yourself enough time. Oh, and the flavor and aroma of fresh bread baking is hard to beat. If you have any questions let me know?
    Take Care,
    Scott

    It doesn't matter how good you get at making it, it will never be as good as your mom could make. There's just something about mother's recipes that only turn out right when they make them. I've made a lot of my own mother's recipes, and although they are good, they're just not the same. Great video Joe, thanks for sharing :)

Never have tried making flatbread, but I bake no knead breads all the time! One of my favorite things to do!

    My mother used to make a flat bread very similar to how you did this but she would take a fork and prick the whole thing before baking. It was flatter than yours so maybe the pricking with fork helped? Slathered with butter right out of the oven...served with soup (our favorite was Finnish Salmon soup)...doesn't get much better than that!

    I have four aunts that never learned to make my grandma's bread. I would visit Grandma for 3 weeks every summer and I would stand by her side and watch her cook everything. I would write down exactly what she did. And she did not measure anyting. 1 Spring I wanted to go to Church Girls Camp, and I wanted to make my own money to do this. So I started making bread and I made a lot of bread. Every batch got better and better and better. My bread came out exactly like my grandma's. The texture was exactly like hers, and boy was it yummy. My aunt's had their own recipes that they made their entire lives. It was good bread but not like Grandma's. My entire family Love's it when I make grandma's bread. I am teaching my grandchildren how to do it so the recipe does not die.

    I think you actually need a larger cookie sheet so that you can spread it out more witch will make it so much thinner. Not sure if they make pans larger then the one you used. Just my thought on what may help make it thinner for you. looks good though and the crunchy sound when you where eating it makes me want to try this recipe.

    Ann from Alabama here! I'm sooo glad I'm eating while I watch this! Between the quarantine, Melissas' recipes, and yours. I've probably gained weight! LOL! It sounded crunchy when you were eating, after putting back in the oven! I love crunchy foods!...Our weather has been crazy too. I've had to cut our GREEN grass 2 times now. It's warm but has a cold breeze to it! I live 2 blocks from the river and fishermen would take their small boats and go fishing every day! (They come by my house!) Some days that would be the only traffic. My neighbor across the street had gotten the virus and so did my oldest grandsons' teacher! They are both doing great now! (My grandson will be 12 tomorrow 4-18-20) I have enjoyed your videos, as usual! Can't wait to see the tent videos! Be safe! 😁

    Need a bigger cookie sheet and also use the end of a wooden spoon to indent holes in the bread dough, just don't poke the holes all the way through the dough. Before u put it in the oven take a basting brush and brush dough with olive oil. Can sprinkle with rosemary or whatever seasoning you like.

    Joe is it flatbread like Focaccia or is it like Naan bread that India eats? Naan is just equal amounts of AP flour to greek yoghurt and it is delicious. Here is one for focaccia bread -
    1/2 cup (120 ml) extra-virgin olive oil
    2 garlic cloves, finely minced
    1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme or 1 teaspoon dried
    1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary or 1 teaspoon dried
    1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
    1 cup (235 ml) warm water
    2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast (1 packet)
    1/4 teaspoon honey
    2 1/2 cups (315 grams) all-purpose flour
    1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
    Here is a link to the site www.inspiredtaste.net/19313/easy-focaccia-bread-recipe-with-herbs/ You will have to copy and paste the address.
    Hope it helps. Michelle
