The Epicurean FeastWhole wheat Pita
Pita is a yeast-leavened round flatbread popular in middle-yeast and Mediterranean cuisine. It is somewhat like yeast added Indian roti. It is mostly served with hummus, falafel, some salads, tahini, and shawarma. Pita can be prepared from wheat or whole wheat. Here I present the whole wheat way of preparing pita. Pita is mostly prepared in oven. But you can also make them on the stovetop. Also, hummus, falafel, and tahini can be prepared at home. You can prepare all of them and enjoy middle-eastern cuisine at home.
