    1. Warm the whey to about 95°F (35°C). 2. Activate the yeast: pour it into a cup and add 100 ml of the whey (from the total amount), ½ tsp of the sugar, and 2 heaping tsp of the flour — both also from the totals. Stir and let it stand 10–15 minutes, until a foamy cap forms. 3. Pour the ready yeast starter into a bowl, add the eggs, the remaining sugar, and the salt, and mix well. 4. Sift 900 g of the flour into a roomy bowl, make a well in the center, and pour in the yeast starter with the egg and the whey. 5. Start mixing with a whisk, then switch to your hands. Add more flour, working up to the consistency shown in the video. The dough should be fairly loose and sticky; after proofing it will stop sticking to your hands and the counter. Cover the dough with plastic wrap and let it rise. Let it double in volume, then punch it down — do this twice. 6. On the third rise you can shape the flatbreads. Divide the dough into 9 pieces (8 or 10 also work), roll them into balls, and let them rest. Set a skillet over the heat and stretch each dough ball into a flatbread by hand (no rolling pin) to about ½ inch (1 cm) thick. 7. Fry the flatbreads over low heat — covered at first. Once the underside is golden, flip them and finish the second side uncovered. 8. Brush the flatbreads with butter (or rich homemade cream) while they're hot. Enjoy!
