Title: Pizza Or Pita Bread
Categories: Breads
Yield: 12 Pitas

1 tb Yeast
1/2 ts Salt
3/4 c Water; warm
2 3/4 c Unbleached flour
1 c Water; warm
3/4 c Cake flour
1 ts Sugar

In a medium bowl, sprinkle yeast over 3/4 cup warm water and let
soften. Stir in additional water, sugar, salt and flours with a
wooden spoon, mixing until well blended.

Turn the dough out onto a floured board and dust lightly with flour.
Knead about 10 minutes, adding flour as necessary to make dough
smooth and elastic. Place in a greased bowl; turn dough to grease
top. Cover let rise in a warm place until doubled, about an hour.

Punch dough down and let rise again for about 1/2 hour. Turn onto a
floured surface and knead again lightly. Divide dough into 3 equal
portions for pizza, or 12 portions for pita bread. Shape each into a
ball and roll until very flat, 12" for pizzas or 6" for pitas. Place
on floured baking sheets.

For pitas, heat oven to 450 F and bake for 5 to 10 minutes. For
pizzas, top with sauce, mozzarella cheese, and any other desired
toppings, and bake at 425 F until browned, 20 to 25 minutes.

Makes 3 pizzas or 12 pitas.
