No-Knead Cheese Curd Flatbreads
This cheese flatbread that can be dipped in sour cream is the perfect appetizer to enjoy with friends. It’s also the perfect bread for getting into bread-making, given that it requires no kneading. To avoid this step, a technique of pouring boiling water over the flour is used, which allows the starch to develop. Then add the rest of the flour and the yeast so that the dough rises. In most cheese breads, chunks of cheese aren’t visible because they melt when baked. That issue is solved by using cheese curds, which don’t melt. Simply pan-fry them in a skillet for a few minutes, allowing you to stretch happy hour a little further.
