"When we gather to pay tribute to those who are no longer with us, we give out pieces of a Memorial Service Pita. Here`s the most suitable recipe for it."

Ingredients

  • yeast - 1/2 cube, fresh
  • eggs - 2
  • milk - 1 2/3 cups (400 ml)
  • sugar - 1 tablespoon
  • salt - 1 tsp
  • oil - 3 tablespoons
  • flour - 3 1/2 cups (850 g)
measures

How to make

Activate the yeast in a little of the warm milk, with the sugar and a little flour. Beat the eggs, pour the remaining milk into them. To the sifted flour, add the yeast and milk mixture, then knead a stretchy dough.

Divide the dough into 6 equal-sized balls. Roll out 4 of the balls to the size of the tray and smear with oil. Arrange them on top of each other, excluding the 4th one. Make 8 cuts, starting from the center and going out to the edges - not all the way, leave about 3/4″ (2 cm).

Grab each triangle and twist/fold its underside upward. Shape the other ball of dough until smooth and put it in the middle as a centerpiece. From the 4th ball of dough roll out a sheet, then use a pastry lattice roller on it to make a lattice. Put it on top of the smooth ball in the middle.

From the remaining dough balls, make a cross by rolling them out into a sheet and cutting it out. Leave the pita in a warm area to rise. Once it's ready, smear it with egg yolk, sprinkle seeds and bake in a preheated 340°F (170 °C) oven.
