    Discovered you via your cookbook that I found and purchased in Target. Looking forward to making some of your delicious recipes! ☺️😁 I do have a request/question: do you have already or could you do a brief series on pairing dishes to make a satisfying meal? Do you serve 5-7 dishes most nights even while working full time? Or do you do 2-3? What do you tend to serve together to make a filling, satisfying dinner spread?

    • @TheMediterraneanDish
      @TheMediterraneanDish  Месяц назад +2

      To make whole wheat pits, use 1 ½ cup whole wheat flour and 1 ½ cup all-purpose flour. If you want to make gluten free pita, you can simply replace the flour with the same amount of an all-purpose gluten free flour. Bob's Red Mill all-purpose gluten free flour or Bob's Red Mill 1 to 1 baking flour will work in this recipe.

    Great video. What is the temp when cooking the pita in the oven?

    • @TheMediterraneanDish
      @TheMediterraneanDish  Месяц назад

      To bake pita in the oven: Heat the oven to 475 degrees F and place a heavy-duty baking pan or large cast iron skillet on the middle rack to heat. Working in batches, place the rolled-out pitas directly on the hot baking baking sheet (I was only able to fit 2 at a time). Bake for 2 minutes on one side, and then, using a pair of tongs, carefully turn pita over to bake for 1 minute on the other side. The pita will puff nicely and should be ready. Remove from the oven and cover the baked pitas with a clean towel while you work on the rest of the pitas.
