Today, we are trying this round bread straight from the Middle East: pita bread! Super easy to make, especially with our written explanations, photos, and video, you can easily recreate this recipe at home. When it comes to tasting, you can devour it as is throughout the meal or cut it in half to fill it like a sandwich. One last idea: spread it with ricotta and then sprinkle with a drizzle of olive oil + coarse salt... A delight :-)
