The Golden Rule
"Never, under any circumstances, use a non-stick pan unless you want your naan to slide ignominiously into your lap instead of sticking to the skillet for the flame-kissed flip!"

Chef's Notes
Listen to me closely, culinary adventurers! The magic of a great naan lies entirely in the resting time and the fiery passion of your cast-iron skillet. Do not rush the yeast and yogurt slumber.
Pro Tip
Want restaurant-level blistering? Make sure your water-brushed side hits a screaming hot, ungreased cast-iron skillet. That sudden thermal shock is your ticket to flavor town!
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
Beware the slippery skillet! If your pan is greased or non-stick, the wet dough will slide right off the moment you invert it over the burner, landing squarely in your open fire and creating a smoky, tragic disaster.
The Jester's Corner
Royal Court Comedy
I asked the chef for a recipe, and he gave me a map to the bakery down the street. It seems the only thing harder than kneading this dough is finding a cook who doesn't use a store-bought version.
The Culinary Science
Baking powder and baking soda react with the acid in the thick yogurt to produce microscopic carbon dioxide bubbles, which expand under high heat and give your naan that airy, pillow-soft chew.

Starch Retrogradation Reversal
Storage Science
Store at room temperature in a breathable bread bag or paper wrapper for up to 2 days. DO NOT refrigerate, as the cold accelerates starch retrogradation (staling). For long-term storage, freeze tightly wrapped.
Reheating Science
To reverse staling, flick a few drops of water onto the crust and reheat in a 350°F (175°C) oven for 5-8 minutes. The steam will re-gelatinize the starches, making the crumb soft and the crust crisp.
