My mom would be so proud of you :) don’t forget to share some pix

Here is our family recipe:

PITAS

Sponge:

7g Yeast

125g All-purpose flour

250g warm water

Combine and let the sponge rest for about 20 mins at room temperature.

In a stand mixer bowl combine:

1 sponge from above

1 1/2 Tbsp Olive oil

2 tsp fine sea salt

220g All-purpose flour

Knead with the dough hook for 5-6 minutes on low, adding a little more flour as required. You want the dough to pull away from the sides and basically have everything in a ball on the dough hook and nothing but residual oil on the sides.

Wipe inside of bowl with 1/4 teaspoon olive oil. Turn dough around in bowl to cover with a thin film of oil; cover bowl with foil and let sit until dough has doubled in size, about 2 hours.

Remove dough from bowl and place onto a floured work surface. Lightly pat into a flat shape about 1 inch thick. Use a knife to cut dough into 8 pieces.

Form each piece into a small round ball with a smooth top, pulling dough from the sides and tucking the ends underneath the bottom.

Cover dough balls with lightly oiled plastic wrap and let rest for 30 minutes.

Sprinkle a small amount of flour on a work surface and top of a dough ball; gently pat dough ball flat with your fingers, forming a flat, round bread about 1/4 inch thick. Let dough round rest for 5 minutes. Repeat with remaining dough balls.

Brush a cast-iron skillet with remaining 3/4 teaspoon olive oil and place over medium-high heat. Lay pita bread into hot skillet and cook until bread begins to puff up and bottom has brown spots and blisters, about 3 minutes. Flip, cook 2 more minutes, and flip back onto original side to cook for about 30 more seconds. Pita bread will begin to puff up and fill with hot air. Stack cooked breads on a plate; when cool enough to handle, break breads in half and open the pocket inside for stuffing.

Sorry if that posted a bunch of times: I went to post, Damus crashed and I mashed the shit out of the post button because that took a looooong time to type out.
