Bazlama is a leavened, circular flatbread from Turkish cuisine with a soft, fluffy texture and slightly crisp exterior.
After mixing and fermenting for two to three hours, a 200-250 gram piece of dough is made into balls, then rolled out flat and baked on a hot stove.
After baking, it is generally consumed fresh and is often served as part of a traditional Turkish breakfast.
Bazlama is sometimes referred to as "village bread" due to its popularity in rural areas of Turkey.
[2] Shelf life of bazlama varies from several hours to a few days, depending on storage conditions.
