1 1/2    POUND YIELDS 8 PITAS 1 POUND YIELDS 6 PITAS
HINTS: Don't give up the first time if not perfect. Here are tips: 1. The
pitas puff up during baking, so avoid using too much flour while rolling
them out.  Keep unrolled balls covered to avoid them drying out. 2. Those
that don't puff up perfectly during baking were probably torn or creased in
handling, so handle with care while rolling and transferring from counter
to cake rack. 3. Avoid overbaking, they will turn crisp and brittle.
