⏱ 1 hr🍽 8 servings 🌍 Mediterranean👩🍳 Afoona🧩 2 parts
Dissolve the yeast and the sugar in the lukewarm unsweetened soy milk and leave about 5 minutes, until the mixture foams.
💡If the mixture doesn't foam in that time, the yeast is no longer active, or the water was too hot. Start over with fresh yeast and body-temperature water.

Mix the flour and salt in a large bowl.

Add the yeast mixture, the flax eggs and the butter and Knead about 10 minutes, until the dough is smooth.
⚙ KneadingBowlStand mixer
💡For yeast dough, use the windowpane test: a small piece stretches into a thin, translucent sheet without tearing, and that's the sign the kneading is done. Add flour only by the tablespoon, and only if the dough is still sticky after a few minutes: too much flour makes a tough dough.
