This has been the most fun I've had with bread baking in awhile. I used the Red Sea Starter for this one. My loaves took about 5 minutes to 'poof'. I stuffed it with a pizza-type filling and baked it for 8 min at 350F to warm it. Definately a keeper.

Tasted very good and easy to make. Only they didn't puff up as I thought they should. But that could be because of my elevation of about 7000 ft and maybe bec. of my sourdough starter (which I am feeding and using since 2 yrs.)Maybe I need a new starter. I will definatly try them again.

I'll confess that I think there were some errors made on my part that really make this recipe seem worse than it was. 1) I used whole wheat flour, because I was out of bread flour. 2) I cooked 3 of these at a time instead of 1 at a time (didn't have enough baking sheets for this recipe) and didn't grease the pans before "proofing" them--big mistake, they were stuck! They have good texture, but they never really poofed up and made pockets, they are more like flatbread, which I'm thinking was because the wheat flour was too heavy. The thing about this recipe that would change for next time is that I would omit the Thyme and Marjoram and sub in garlic and basil instead. That's more a personal preference thing though, and not a fault with the recipe. Will keep trying til I get it right, thanks Donna M.!
