Moroccan Khobz

Moroccan Khobz is the daily bread of Morocco, a slightly leavened, round flatbread topped with sesame seeds and sometimes nigella seeds, baked until the crust is firm and golden and the interior is soft and chewy. It is present at every Moroccan meal from breakfast to dinner, used to scoop tagines, dip into olive oil, and accompany cooked vegetable salads. Moroccan families traditionally made their Khobz daily at home and took it to the communal neighbourhood baker (farran) to bake. This tradition persists in many Moroccan cities and villages, and the quality of local farran bread remains a point of neighbourhood pride. The bread's neutral, slightly wheaty flavour and sturdy texture make it the ideal vehicle for Moroccan food.

Ka'ak (Libyan Ring Bread)

Ka'ak is a ring-shaped bread, crisp outside and soft within, scattered with sesame seeds. It is Libyan in this version, and made across a wide stretch of the Arabic-speaking world, Egypt, Iraq, Iran, Jordan, Lebanon, Palestine and Syria all have their own. The shape is what defines it. Ka'ak is formed into a large ring, bigger and thinner than a bagel, which is why street vendors across the region can carry stacks of them on a pole or a cart. In Libya it is eaten at breakfast alongside hummus and falafel, and it comes in savoury and sweet versions. The name travels further than the shape does. Ka'ak, sometimes kahk or kahqa, covers a whole family of baked goods across the Arabic-speaking world, from this ring bread to the small filled Egyptian cookies eaten at Eid, which are a completely different thing. The word means something closer to "baked good" than to any specific item. One technique in this recipe is worth borrowing for other breads. A tray of water is placed in the bottom of the oven while it heats, so the loaves bake in a steamy environment. Steam keeps the crust soft for the first minutes, letting the bread rise fully before the surface sets, and then produces a thin, crisp finish.
