Flatbread dough

4 cups all-purpose flour (chilled)

3 teaspoons yeast

½ teaspoon salt

1¾ cups ice cold water

¼ cup olive oil

Put dry ingredients into a large bowl and mix with a fork. Pour in the water and oil and mix well. Knead for 5 minute, dough will be very sticky. Place in an oiled bowl and put in fridge. Remove 2 hours prior to use.

This makes enough for six flatbreads. The accompanying recipe will use four. I like to freeze the rest and have it on hand for quick meals and snacks.
