Pita Bread
1 package active dry yeast, or equivalent
1 1/4 cup warm water
3 cups flour
2 tsp salt
Preheat oven to 500.
Dissolve yeast in water. Stir in flour and salt.
Knead on a floured surface until smooth (about 5 minutes).
Divide into six balls and knead each until smooth and elastic.
Flatten each to 1/4" thick and 4-5 inches in diameter. Cover with a damp
towel and let rise for 45 minutes.
Place upside down on a cookie sheet and bake for 10-15 minutes, until
light brown.
