Pocket Sandwich
….When I was going to have lunch by making a pocket sandwich with leftover pita and hummus, we laughed again and ate lunch with my husband’s one question…. He asked me “How did you get this bread to make a pocket?” …Ummm I didn’t know what to say at first. He looked at the pocket sandwich many times as if it was strange, but the curiosity was still there. My husband, who still doesn’t know what everyone knows, has so much fun. When I said “I attached it with steam rice” as an answer, he didn’t believe it and was smiling. Pita is a type of versatile flat bread that is soft and slightly chewy and often features a pocket inside, which is the result of baking the bread in a hot oven. The bread can be eaten plain or dipped in olive oil. It can be topped with spreads and meats, folded over, and eaten as a sandwich or the pocket can be stuffed with various filling and served as a toasted or baked sandwich. Now my husband knows that pita bread has a pocket….
