This is Anna Olsen's recipe. It works beautifully and is quite easy to make. Somehow it seems to disappear quickly as well. It originated in Armenia but has traveled the world and earned popularity everywhere.

How To Make crispy seed lavash
-
1Place the water, milk, yeast and honey in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the hook attachment and stir together.
-
2Add the bread flour, cake & pastry flour, whole wheat flour, semolina and salt and mix this on low speed until the flour is incorporated, then increase the speed by one level and knead for about 5 minutes, until the dough becomes elastic.
-
3The dough will be very soft and definitely stick to the bottom of the bowl as it mixes. Alternatively, the dough can be mixed in a bowl by hand and then turned out onto a work surface, kneading for about 7 minutes. Cover and let the dough rise at room temperature for 30 minutes and then chill overnight.
-
4Preheat the oven to 375 °F (190 °C). Line 4 baking trays with parchment paper (or prepare the lavash in batches).
-
5Divide the dough into 16 pieces (50 g each) and roll into a ball. Using a pasta roller to roll out the dough, first, shape the dough into an oval with your hands, so that it will fit through the rollers on the lowest setting.
-
6Flour the dough generously (you will need lots of flour to coat the lavash as you roll it) to prevent sticking and roll it through settings 1 through 4, flouring at each rolling, and rolling until the dough is about 1/16-inch (1.5 mm) thick and is a long oblong piece
-
7Place the pieces on the baking trays, trimming them if needed so they fit. They can be placed very close together on the tray, but not overlap.
-
8Brush the lavash with a little water and sprinkle with pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, poppy seeds, sesame seeds, salt & pepper.
-
9Bake for about 15 minutes until the lavash is a rich golden brown. Remove the lavash immediately from the baking trays to cool, and let cool completely before serving. The lavash will keep, well-wrapped at room temperature, for a week.
