RECIPE NOTES & TIPS

Ensure your yeast is active and in date before using.
Use Bakers flour instead of plain flour as it has a higher protein content which makes it perfect for breads, loaves, pide and scrolls.
Allow the dough to rise in a greased ThermoServer. If you don't have a ThermoServer, you can use a large greased bowl with a tea towel over the top.
Place the ThermoServer (or bowl) in a warm spot to rise.
Don't skip the second rise on the baking tray - this gives the pide it's delicious airy holes inside!
Store at room temperature, wrapped in a tea towel or in a bread bag, for up to 2 days.
Freeze for up to 2 months.
