Pita bread (unleavened)

12 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
3 cups White flour
1 teaspoon Salt
1 cup Warm water
Vegetable oil

Directions

Combine the flour and salt; stir in enough warm water so that the dough pulls away from the sides of the bowl & is no longer sticky. Stir till smooth. Knead for 5 minutes. Shape dough into rectangle & cut in half lengthwise. Divide into 12 portions and shape into smooth balls. Cover with damp balls and let rest 5 to 10 minutes. Press each ball flat & roll into a 6" or 7" circle. Cover with damp towels. Lightly oil a griddle or skillet.

Gently stretch each round as thin as possible. Cook until brown & bubbly spots appear on the bottom, about 90 seconds. Turn over & brown the other side. Remove from griddle and wrap immediately in towels.
