Pitas

Today I made homemade pita bread. Pita bread is one of my favorite things in the world PERIOD. So it was super fun to make them. Very easy too, which is always encouraging. Flour (I used a whole wheat flour...again), oil, water, yeast, and salt. Mix, kneed for 8 minutes by hand, let sit for 1.5 hours. Oven 450 degrees with cookie sheet or oven stone preheated as well. Pop a couple of rolled out (like mini pizzas) pieces of dough for about 4 minutes (or until they start to balloon), flip for another 2 minutes. DONE. Easy, and I now have something delicious and homemade for my hummus. Yummy yum yum. I am going to tackle puff pastry tomorrow (I think), which I haven't done since culinary school. Wish me luck! :)
