Name: Lavosh
Ingredients: 1 pk Yeast, active, dry 1/4 oz; 1 1/2 ts Sugar; 1 c Water, warm 115 F; 2 tb Water, warm 115 F; 3 c Flour, all-purpose; 2 oz Butter, melted (1/2 stick); 1 tb Seeds, sesame, white, OR; Onions, chopped; Seeds, poppy

The way to open our hearts to others is by receiving afresh the grace of God and appreciating what it means: seeing our own need of Christ; coming to receive His mercy; sensing how undeserved His love for us is; remembering how He has also opened His heart to those whose hearts are closed against us. Then we will see that the heart which is too narrow to receive a fellow Christian is too narrow to enthrone the Lord Jesus Christ. But the heart that is opened to receive the grace of Christ will learn to welcome all those whom Christ Himself has welcomed.

INSTRUCTIONS

Pour the yeast into a clean, small, shallow bowl. Add 1 teaspoon of
the sugar and 1/4 cup of the warm water. Let the mixture stand for 2 to 3
minutes, then stir to dissolve the yeast completely. Place the bowl in a
warm, draft-free place for 5 to 10 minutes or until the mixture looks foamy
and has almost doubled in volume.
Measure your flour into a mixing bowl, and make a well in the center
of the flour.  Pour the yeast mixture into this center depression, and then
add the remaining water, sugar, and melted butter to the yeast.
Mix the ingredients well with a spoon until a soft, spongy dough is
formed.  Cover the bowl loosely with a warm, damp cloth, and return it to
the warm, draft-free spot until the dough again doubles in volume, about 45
minutes.
Preheat your oven to 350 F.
When the dough has risen, place it on a lightly floured surface and
divide it into six equal parts. With a lightly floured rolling pin, roll
each part into a flat round about 1/4 inch thick.
Place 2 or 3 rounds on each of two or three cookie sheets. Rub the
surface of the rounds lightly with cool water, and sprinkle each with 1/2
teaspoon sesame seeds, or other topping. The water will basically help the
toppings to adhere to the rounds when baked.
Bake the rounds in the oven on the bottom rack for about 20 minutes or
until the breads are a pale golden brown. (Bake breads in "shifts" if oven
size does not allow entire recipe to be baked at once.)
With a spatula, transfer the breads to a wire rack to cool. Breads
will keep several days if stored in a dry, air-tight place.
