4. Pita Bread Recipe
6 Rhodes Texas rolls, thawed and risen
Flour
Olive oil
Salt and pepper
Seasonings and herbs
Using a little flour and a rolling pin, roll each roll into a
flat, round shape, about 10-12 inches in diameter (the smaller
the circle, the thicker the pita). Turn dough over often as
you roll it out. If desired, brush with oil oil, salt, pepper,
and other seasonings and herbs. Place on a medium high heated
barbecue grill or a grill pan on your stove top. Gril 30-45
seconds on each side or until golden brown lines appear.
Remove from heat immediately.
