Flatbread dough calculators
Flour tortillas on lard, masa harina tortillas, naan on yogurt, paper-thin lavash, pocket pita at 65% and unleavened chapati at 75% hot water.
Half the flatbreads never see yeast and go from the bowl to a hot surface within the hour. Flour tortillas are lard and warm water, corn tortillas are masa harina with the water dosed to the flour in your bag, chapati is atta and hot water at 75%. Naan on yogurt and pita at 65% hydration do rise, and pita balloons only when it goes in thin and at full heat. Lavash takes a tiny yeast dose and is rolled to the thickness of paper.
