How to make Colombian Flatbread

Why cooks start here

Colombian Flatbread is cooked the way Colombian home tables cooks it — salt judged by hand, fat used generously, and the table set for sharing. This is the home version, written down the way a colombian family cook actually puts it on the table.

Colombian Flatbread is a staple that graces the table at any time of day, from breakfast to late night snacks. This home-cooked version reflects the Colombian approach to simplicity and abundance, where salt is measured with intuition and olive oil is not spared. It's a dish that finds its place at family tables, where sharing is a given, and each piece is torn and enjoyed communally. The flatbread emerges with a light crispness on the outside, giving way to a tender, airy interior that captures the essence of freshly baked bread. Each bite is a balance of subtle saltiness and the smooth richness of olive oil, making it a versatile accompaniment to any meal or a satisfying snack on its own.
