CibbuanoFACT ABOUT: Pitta Bread
November 29th 2007 11:58
Did you know that Pitta bread is not only traditional in Middle Eastern cuisine and Mediterranean cuisines (such as Greece), but can also be found in North Africa to India to Afghanistan? Yes that’s right! Isn’t it funny how, cultures all over the world which don’t even appear to be remotely connected, end up with the same type of food? Must indicate that Pitta bread was destined to be created!
Pitta bread is well known for its round, flatbread appearance. Traditionally pitta is cooked flat without rising. The high temperatures in which pitta bread is cooked in, causes the flattened rounds of dough to puff dramatically, creating its characteristic separated layers inside, which allows the bread to be opened into pockets- creating a space for use in various dishes! How handy!
