Dissolve 1 Tbsp of active dry yeast and 2 Tbsp of sugar in 2 cups of slightly warm water (30 C or 86 F) and set aside for 5 minutes.

Add 5 cups of all purpose flour to the yeast mixture gradually.

Add 1 Tbsp of salt and knead the dough for at least 7 minutes until soft and stretchy.

Cover the dough and let it rest for 5 minutes.

Shape the dough into balls (about 10 pieces) and cover with a kitchen towel to avoid dryness.

Let the shaped dough balls rest for 20 minutes.

Prepare a flour glaze by mixing 1 Tbsp of flour, 1 tsp of salt, and 4 Tbsp of water.

After 20 minutes, shape the dough balls by pulling, rolling, and pressing the edges, then cover with a kitchen towel.

Let the shaped dough rest for another 20 minutes.

Preheat the oven to the highest temperature (525 F or 274 C) and prepare to bake using a baking stone or tray.

Brush the dough with the flour glaze and sprinkle flour on the back of a flat tray or wooden board.

Turn on the broiler to 425 F (218 C) and place the baking stone or tray one rack away from the broiler.

Slide the shaped dough onto the hot stone or tray and bake quickly under the broiler.

Optionally sprinkle sesame seeds on the bread before baking.
