Tried Something New Today

I baked pita bread. It's pretty easy as bread baking goes. I was even able to do whole wheat pitas. The hardest part was rolling them out nice and thin.

Then you have to put them in a really hot oven on a pizza stone. Like magic they puff up, I thought it was pretty cool. Halfway through you give them a turn so they get toasty on both sides.

They deflate as they cool and ta-da better then store bought and cheaper as well. I'm thinking about variations already. Rye, herbs, etc..... who knows. Not bad for a morning's worth of baking though.

Isn't it totally cool how they just puff up and make the little pocket.

I always get excited when I make them.
