“You better cut the pizza in four pieces because I’m not hungry enough to eat six.”
Yogi Berra

"Believe it or not, American’s eat 75 acres of pizza a day."
Boyd Matson

"The dishes of the present day are very light, and they have a particular delicacy and perfume. The secret has been discovered of enabling us to eat more and to eat better, as also to digest more rapidly....The new cookery is conductive to health, to good temper, and to long life....Who could enumerate all the dishes of the new cuisine? It is an absolutely new idiom. I have tasted viands prepared in so many ways and fashioned with such art that I could not imagine what they were."
Louis Sebastien Mercier

Chapatis (Roti)

 

Ingredients

1/2 cup whole wheat flour
2/3 cup unbleached all purpose flour
1/2 cup water approximately
1/4 tsp salt (optional)



 

Preparation

Make up the dough approximately 1/2-hour before you need it. Allow the
dough to rest about 10 minutes. Pinch off portion of dough to form a
ball about 1 1/2 inches in diameter. Roll ball flat on lightly
floured surface. Pat back and forth between hands until thin.
(Patting makes the chapati puff when baked.)

Cook on top of the stove on ungreased griddle until browned and
puffed. Use medium heat so the griddle does not get too hot.
