Ingredients
- 5⅓ cups (800 g) type ‘00’ flour
- 3½ tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 3½ tbsp white wine
- tip of a tsp of bicarbonate of soda
- 2 tbsp salt flakes
- 150–200 ml sparkling water
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 220°C (200°C fan-forced).
Place the flour on a board or in a large bowl and make a well in the centre. Add the olive oil, wine, salt and bicarbonate of soda and salt and mix with a wooden spoon to encourage the dough to come together. Add the sparkling water, a little at the time, to form a soft dough. Start by adding 150 ml, then see if you need to add the rest.
Knead the dough on a floured surface for a few minutes, then flatten it out with rolling pin to a thickness of about 2 cm. Put the dough on an oiled baking tray and score it with a serrated knife to create a criss-cross pattern. Bake for 30–35 minutes, or until golden and the scent of wine and olive oil is starting to make you salivate in anticipation.
