With the day coming to an end but before dusk marks the time to break the fast, the wafts of freshly baked goods, especially the smell of the flatbread called pide, fill the streets. With its soft texture, it can be eaten with pretty much anything, though usually as a side for a hearty soup at the iftar table.

The beautiful thing is that you can make this iconic flatbread at home! Of course, a stone oven would give it even more of the flair it needs, but this recipe is pretty close to the real deal!
