Molly on the Range: Recipes and Stories from An Unlikely Life on a Farm

By Molly Yeh
Rodale Books - 2016

This is not the pita I grew up with, but it is the pita bread I always wanted - thick and puffy with a perfect pocket for all your delicious savories. I have never made pita on a baking sheet. FOUR or FIVE at a time! Yeh has you roll the dough thicker than most recipes (1/4 inch thick) and bake on a parchment lined baking sheet. Much quicker than 1 or 2 at a time on a pizza stone, which means less time you have to have the oven blazing. And they are delicious! One note - I did not need all the flour - had about 1/3 cup left and probably could have used a couple tablespoons less.

This was good with potential... I did not like the addition of honey and will stick to the more traditional pomegranate molasses, which does give sweetness but also a nice sourness. Also mine needed more salt and spice (perhaps to compensate for the sweetness of the honey). Once these adjustments were made this was nice slathered on chicken kabobs and even burgers.

This made a tasty, vanilla forward, caramel-y cookie. I have only tried them after the minimal fridge rest (1 hour) but have a feeling they will be even better after the full 24 hour "curing" period. I baked them for about 19 minutes (start checking at around 17) for a chewy cookie with crisp edges. Don't skip the salt on top.
