{ Cooking Thursday - Turkish Flatbread Pizza Pide }

Good morning, welcome back to our Cooking Thursday.  

I've missed sharing recipes with you all, and I have quite a few new ones to bring and introduce to you.  I think you will enjoy them, as much as my family has.

The first one I'm sharing with you today, is for these delicious Turkish Pizzas, they are a very common street food.  They are a flatbread pizza that come stuffed with a variety of fillings.  The Pide originated in the city of Samsun,  in the Turkish Black Sea region, and has been a favorite since 1725.  The flatbread is shaped into a boat, or a flat American football, if that helps you visualize it.
 
 
 
This was my first attempt at making these, so although they were absolutely delicious, I wasn't thrilled with the final look.  It takes a bit of practice to make sure the Pide doesn't open up, and stays flat around the edges.

Anyway, I hope you will enjoy this recipe, it is a great alternative to your usual Friday night pizza.  

The recipe I'm sharing with you, is from one of my favorite Turkish channels on Youtube.  I just love Aysenur, she is such a sweet lady and shares so many wonderful recipes.  Be sure to give her a follow.
