I’ve been meaning to make pide (in case you’re wondering, it’s pronounced “PEE-day”) for quite some time. This is street food, at its very best. And this dough? It is positively fabulous and wonderful to work with. I’ve given you a couple of filling options, and then some! Continue reading

This is a great dough to work with and the fillings are really limitless. Mount Pelion, which took its name from the mythical king Peleus, father of Achilles, is considered one of the most beautiful mountains in Greece. The local cuisine specializes in charcuterie, and a hearty stew called, spentzofáï. These little breads resemble a Mount, and would be a perfect accompaniment to either the charcuterie or a stew.

Did you know that during the Middle Ages (5th to the 15th century), much of Europe, certainly the peasants, ate rye (or barley) bread? Funny how things change.

This is more or less the Everyday Bread recipe, but with additional butter, egg and sugar and using all-purpose flour. I decided to give you an actual recipe, rather than try to alter it…I did that, but even I found it confusing. Confusing is bad. Understanding is good…and it leads to much better results!
