Pita Bread
Ingredients
375g AP flour
240g 104° water
2 tsp instant yeast
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp sugar
1 tsp salt
Directions
Mix dry ingredients in mixer bowl.
Put in water and oil and mix to just combine
Set aside for 15 minutes
Mix to thoroughly combine and knead for 7 minutes.
Form into ball and place in oiled bowl.
Cover and raise until doubled in size.
Flour bench and turn dough out.
De-gas dough.
Divide into 8 pieces
Form each piece into a ball.
Cover with towel ands rest for 10 minutes
Roll out each ball into 6-inch circle.
Place on parchment lined pan.
Cover with towel and raise for 30 minutes
I cook mine on a smoking hot comal for tortillas. Surface temp is 575-590 degrees.
A cast iron frying pan is just as good - USE NO OIL!
Put each circle on the pan for about 30 seconds, then flip it over.
Cook it on the other side until it swells up.
Flip it back to the first side to swell up again.
Remove it to a rack to cool.
