Pide (pronounced pee-dE) is often described as "Pita" on menus and we guess that's the nearest description. It's a thick, oblong dough base, your chosen filling and then it's folded over around the edges. You can usually watch the guy prepare the base, spinning it in the air and then sliding it into a stone oven. A few minutes later, your pide will be taken out of the oven, chopped into thin slices and served to you on a plate.

Today, we are going to make the Pide without any filling which we call it Turkish Bread.
