In a bowl, stir together flour, pinch of salt, and boiling water. Add
cold water, stir until dough forms.
Turn out dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth,
about 10 minutes. Cover and
let rest for 30 minutes.
Divide dough in half, cut each half into 5 pieces and roll each piece
into a small ball.
On a lightly floured surface using a rolling pin, roll each ball into a
3-inch pancake. Brush 5 of the
pancakes with sesame oil, top each with another pancake. Roll each
pancake into an 8- inch
pancake.
Heat a dry heavy skillet. Cook each pancake, without browning, on both
sides until blistered with
several air pockets.
