MOROCCAN BREAD WITH SESAME AND ANISEED
(KISRA) Makes 2 round loaves
For your Moroccan-inspired meals, make a loaf of kisra with the flavors of sesame
and anise. This recipe is adapted from one by Paula Wolfert, an expert on the foods of
Morocco. It is traditionally shaped and baked in thick, flattened discs like pita, but
without the pocket, and the directions for baking it this way are given here. If it is
baked on an earthenware griddle over an open fire, it is called khboz instead. Be sure
to use a coarse grind of whole wheat flour, preferably stone-ground, to obtain the
proper texture of this bread. Serve it with a salad of grated carrots with dates; a
tagine, such as the classic stew of chicken with prunes and apricots; and couscous with
olives. The bread is meant to be dense in texture to use for scooping up the tagine. Or
try using it to scoop up an appetizer of Hummus.
