Do you have a recipe for a flat bread from Sardinia, "carta da musica" or pane carasau? I read descriptions calling for flour, water, salt , and sometimes an egg? No amounts were given, the type of flour, or the baking technique? Thanks for your help.

ingredients

finely ground durum wheat, water, beer yeast, salt

making it

Make a dough with the above ingredients. Some experimentation might be required with the amounts of each.

Once a decent 'pasta' has been formed leave to one side and let rise.

Work the mixture a second time and once again let it rise. In this way on first cooking of the bread the dough will form perfectly.

Separate the mixture into two, roll and place over each other. Now they are ready for the oven.

If prepared well the two pieces should separate and the bread should take on the characteristic flat shape and texture.
