18cm Machine Pitta

You can use this flatbread as a wrap for gyros, skewers, sausages, grilled cheese, or vegan options accompanied with Greek spreads. You can also use it cut as a sider or in sandwiches as a club sandwich bread.

A popular, pre-baked, round flatbread made in Greece by the renowned Alexakis company. Its soft, fluffy texture and large diameter make it a top choice for making authentic Greek gyros and souvlaki, both for domestic and professional use. Key features Size: With a diameter of 18cm, this pitta is slightly larger than the 17cm version, making it particularly suitable for creating generous gyros wraps. Authentic texture: Unlike the thin pocket-style pita breads, this traditional Greek pitta is thick and doughy. When heated, it becomes fluffy and slightly crusty on the exterior. Production and storage: The pitta is immediately frozen at -18°C after production to seal in its freshness. It is typically sold in frozen 10-packs for convenience. Variants: In addition to the standard wheat flour version, Alexakis offers this size in a whole wheat variant. Preparation: It can be prepared from frozen or chilled by heating in an oven, toaster, or grill for a few minutes until warm and pliable. Culinary uses The 18cm Alexakis Greek Pitta is a versatile bread perfect for creating a variety of Mediterranean dishes: Gyros and souvlaki wraps: The traditional choice for wrapping grilled meat and fresh vegetables, along with sauces like tzatziki. Dips and spreads: Its soft texture is ideal for scooping up hummus, tirokafteri, or other spreads. Sandwiches: The large size works well as a base for sandwiches or sliders.
