Cook the Book: Pita Bread

Posted by Adam Kuban, October 10, 2007

When you think "flatbread," it's likely that one of the first flatbreads that comes to mind is pita bread. Anissa Helou, who wrote this week's Cook the Book selection, offers this recipe for home baking in Savory Baking From the Mediterranean. Because of the automated process and high-temperature commercial ovens found in most Lebanese bakeries, she says, these might not have the most even, thin layers--and they might not separate equally when they puff up in the oven--but that shouldn't stop you from experiencing the pleasure of homemade pita.
