| Pita Bread
2 tsp. sugar 1 package (15 grams) active dry yeast 4 cups flour 1 tsp. salt Dissolve the sugar and yeast in 1 1/2 cups of lukewarm water. Mix the flour and salt together and sift them into the dissolved yeast ,mixture, stirring well. Knead the mixture well and divide into about 20 balls. Let stand to rise for 1/2 hour. On a well floured board, roll out the balls into rounds about 5 - 6" (12 - 15 cm.) in diameter and then let rise again for 1/2 hour. Bake the breads in a preheated hot oven just until they are lightly browned underneath (4 - 5 minutes). If the tops have not browned, place the breads under a hot grill for several second, taking care not to overcook. Serve hot or rewarm before serving.
