About Pita Bread

Pita bread is a round, soft, slightly leavened flatbread that originated in the Middle East. It's known for its unique pocket that forms during baking at high temperatures, making it perfect for stuffing with various fillings. Made primarily from wheat flour, water, yeast, and salt, pita bread is a versatile staple in Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cuisines.
