Medieval bread - "Cruste Rolle"
Essentially the Medieval equivalent of a tortilla chip, served as a pre-dinner snack or even a dessert after being coated in sugar.
Ingredients:
2 cups flour
3 eggs
pinch of salt
pinch of saffron
oil (for frying)
Put the flour in a mixing bowl and make a well in the middle.
Beat the eggs, saffron and salt and pour mixture into the flour and mix. If the dough is too wet, add more flour. If it's too dry then add some water.
Separate the dough into roughly 2-inch in diameter pieces and roll out as thin as possible.
Fry in olive oil and serve hot.
Enjoy!
