Pita is originated from the Middle East, the main ingredients are flour and water. Armenia, Balkans, Greece, Turkey in origin.


Commercial pita pockets are sold with a slit or pocket for you to fill, some actually does not. If you find one that does not, simply put filling in the center and fold like a soft taco,it works just as well.
