Pita

A flatbread is a type of bread made from flour, water, and salt, which may or may not include leavening agents. The dough is flattened and typically baked quickly at high temperatures, resulting in a thickness ranging from less than a millimeter to a few centimeters. Flatbreads are distinguished from other flour-based foods by their preparation method and texture, and are considered the oldest and most common form of bread, eaten globally.
