As far as I know, the average pita is not like ours here but if you can get to a store that ....

specializes in kosher imported food you can find real Israeli pita. Also the same if you can find an authentic Arabic grocery.

 
Gave this a try. Since I had no port, I dredged up a vintage dandelion...

wine from the back of the hall closet. It has to be at least twenty years since I made it and probably a lot more. Wow! Worked fine and of course I had to taste it to make sure it hadn't spoiled. I think I could pass it off as a tawny port, or maybe sherry--have nothing in the house to compare it to. Ah, that was my wine-making period! LOL

 
Hi aajay,

how did you make the dandelion wine? Since we have an abundance of the little fellows, it would be nice to be able to do something with them.

 
I'll have to dredge up the recipe for you. It's made with dandelion blossoms so

it may be too late -it is, here in Mass. You also use yeast and raisins (alcoholic raisins, a great by-product)--always thought it should really be called raisin wine. I'll post it if I can find it, as I said it's really vintage.

 
Thanks aajay, I would appreciate it if you can find it.

I didn't know dandelions had a season, I thought they were all summer long, but looking out at my lawn I can only see a few, a lot more clover than dandlions.
