NGUYÊN LIỆU

  • Main Ingredients

    • 🍞 1 package active dry yeast
    • 💧 1 ¼ cups warm water (100 to 110 degrees F/40 to 45 degrees C)
    • 3 ½ cups all-purpose flour, or as needed - divided
    • 🧂 1 ½ teaspoons salt
    • 🧈 ¼ cup vegetable shortening

BƯỚC

1

Sprinkle yeast over warm water in a mixing bowl and allow to stand until the yeast forms a creamy foam, about 5 minutes. Mix in 2 cups of flour, salt, and shortening; beat for 2 minutes with a fork. Stir in as much of the remaining 1 1/2 cup flour as needed.

2

Turn dough out onto a floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, kneading in more flour if dough is sticky. Form into a ball, cover with a kitchen towel, and let rest in a warm area for 15 minutes.

3

Preheat oven to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C).

4

Divide dough into 12 equal portions; flour your hands and roll each piece into a ball. Cover dough balls with a kitchen towel and let rest for 10 minutes. Flatten the balls into rounds on a floured surface, cover with kitchen towel, and let rest 10 more minutes. Gently roll each dough ball into a circle about 6 inches in diameter on a floured surface. Place pita breads in a single layer on ungreased baking sheets.

5

Bake in preheated oven until the pita breads puff up, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip breads over with a spatula, return to oven, and bake 2 more minutes. Let cool on wire racks before cutting into halves and gently separating tops and bottoms to form pockets for filling.

💡 Allow the dough to rest properly during each stage to ensure it puffs up well in the oven.Use a very hot oven to promote puffing and a soft texture.Store baked pita breads in an airtight container or freeze for long-term storage.
