Think of a healthy snack and the first thing that comes to your mind is probably Pita and Hummus. A staple of Middle-Eastern cuisine for more than 4,000 years, Pita is a simple flatbread that was originally made with a combination of fresh dough and dough that was left to collect middle yeast. The possibilities to stuff it, dip it, and wrap it are virtually infinite. The bread is baked at high temperatures so the flat dough expands quickly, developing a steam-formed pocket on the interior. Pita is the perfect choice for steaks, lamb, falafel, kebabs, or chicken, and it is traditionally paired with hummus, tzatziki sauce, or tabouleh. Make it with whole wheat, and Pita becomes highly nutritious and is a great source of protein and fiber, with very low-fat content. Today, Pita is loved around the world and some modern variations include pita paired with avocado and eggplants, as well as pita chips–baked pita bread that is perfect for dipping sauces.
