Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

Notes about this recipe

    Probably the best and easiest pitas I've ever made. Great puff, great flavor. I retarded my dough for 24 hours after the first rise out of necessity, and they still came out great.

    Easy and delicious. Only needed about 5 minutes of kneading in my ancient stand mixer. Used a tortilla press to roll them out - perfect.

    Easy to make. Fabulously soft.

    I found these very easy to make although I don't have a stand mixer and made them in my food processor instead. They came out of the oven looking beautiful and tasted delicious. If you're making them it's worth buying really good quality flour to get a better flavour. The ones I didn't roll out so far puffed up much better and were lovely and soft the following day too. I used a toaster to reheat them and sprinkled them with a few drops of cold water first which worked nicely. I'll definitely make these again and they'd be a good thing to make the day before to take to a picnic or a barbecue. They were much nicer than shop bought ones and just as versatile so well worth making.

    These are very easy to make and turned out beautifully. Will make again.

    Made the pitas baking at 550°F on a baking steel. They are a nice bread to add to my repertoire.
