    Title: Khoubs Araby (Pita Bread)
    Categories: Breads
    Yield: 1 Batch

    5 c Flour; up to 6 c, all white
    -or 3 parts white to 1 part
    -wheat
    2 ts Salt
    2 pk Yeast
    2 tb Sugar
    1 3/4 c Water; warm
    1/4 c Olive oil
    Sesame seeds
    Corn meal; for pan

    Dissolve yeast in warm water, add sugar and salt. Set aside for 5 to
    10 minutes, until foamy.

    Mix 3 cups flour and yeast mixture in a large bowl. Add oil and mix
    well. Add 2 cups of flour, 1 cup at a time, until a soft dough is
    formed. If more is needed, knead 1/2 a cup of flour into dough at a
    time. You want a relatively soft dough. Total kneading time should be
    about 8 minutes by hand.

    Roll into 2" balls. Let rest for 20 minutes, covered. On floured
    surface, roll balls into flat disks, about 1/8" thick. Sprinkle with
    sesame seeds. Sprinkle pan with corn meal. Place disks on pan, let
    rest for 10 minutes. Bake at 475°F on bottom rack of oven for 6 to 9
    minutes until lightly browned and puffy.
