Pita Bread Video by Tarla Dalal

A popular bread from Mediterranean cuisine, Pita Bread can be had as it is with hummus, or used to make tasty dishes like Falafel. Take care to dissolve the yeast well in warm water, because it will not get activated if you use cold or hot water. At the right temperature, yeast will get activated and you will see tiny bubbles on top of the water after you let it rest for a few minutes. Likewise, it is also important to use olive oil to make Pita Bread, as it gives a mild but characteristic aroma to the bread.
