1. Place flour in a bowl.
Add boiling water, stirring with chopsticks or a
fork until dough is
evenly moistened. On a lightly floured board, knead
dough until smooth
and satiny, about 5 minutes. Cover and let rest for 30
minutes.
2. On a lightly floured
board, roll dough into a cylinder; cut into 16 equal
pieces. Roll each
piece into a ball, then flatten slightly into a pancake.
Brush top of each
pancake with a light coating of sesame oil.
3. Place 1 pancake on top
of a second pancake, oiled sides together. With a
rolling pin, roll
to make a circle 6 inches in diameter. Stack and roll
remaining pairs of
pancakes the same way. Cover with a damp cloth to
prevent drying.
Cooking:
1. Place a nonstick
frying pan over lm heat until hot. Add 1 pair of pancakes
and cook, turning
once, until lightly browned and bubbles appear on the
surface, about 2
minutes on each side. Remove from pan and separate
into 2 pancakes while
still hot. Stack cooked pancakes on a plate while
cooking remaining
pairs of pancakes.
2. Serve pancakes
hot. If making ahead, reheat pancakes in a microwave
oven or wrap in a
clean dish towel and steam in a bamboo steamer for
5 minutes.
