Greek-Style Pita Bread Recipe

water

sugar

active dry yeast

all-purpose flour

oil, divided

In a large bowl combine the warm water, sugar, and yeast. Stir, then set aside for 10 minutes, until it turns bubbly

Combine the flour and the salt. Start adding the flour mixture to the yeast mixture, 1 cup at a time. Mix with a whisk or wooden spoon, and then turn it onto a board that has been dusted with flour, and knead for about 5 minutes.

Put 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large bowl, and coat the sides. Place the dough in the bowl, cover, and set in a warm place for 1 hour. The dough should double in size.

After the dough has rested, divide it into 8 equal sections. Roll each section into a circle 6 inches in diameter.

Add some of the remaining oil to a medium frying pan, and heat to medium. Adding 1 dough circle at a time, cook for 3 minutes on each side, until lightly browned. As you are working, keep the dough covered under a damp dish towel. Repeat the process with the remaining dough.

If you want to whip up a perfect batch of sticky rice, this bamboo-steamed method won&#39;t let you down.

Bamboo Steamer Sticky Rice Recipe

Thai sweet, sticky, or glutinous rice

Rinse the rice well under cold water for at least a minute. Then, pour the rice and water into a large bowl and let sit for at least 3 hours.

Drain the rice in a colander and rinse it again for 1 minute under cold water.

Line a bamboo steamer with parchment paper and spread out the rice in an even layer. Fill a pot of water with at least 2 inches of water. Make sure that when you put the bamboo steamer on top of the pot, the water is not touching the bottom of the steamer.

Bring the water to a boil, then place the steamer on top. Reduce heat to medium high and steam the rice for 35-45 minutes, or until the rice is cooked and chewy.
