Reheat the oven with a pizza stone or any other flat surface to 450 degrees.
3 stages:
Stage 1: (can be done the night before)
Sprinkle 1 tsp. of yeast into 2.5 cups if warm water.
When the yeast is dissolved add the 2.5 cups of whole wheat flour.
Stir in one direction while counting to 100. (still wet a bit)
Cover and set aside for 1-12 hours.
Stage 2:
Add 1 tbs. of course salt and
1 tbs. of olive oil.
Mix lightly in the same direction.
Add 1 cups of whole wheat flour and 2cups of white flour and mix (add one cup at at a time).
Dust the working surface with flour, add the dough and neigh for 10 minutes.
Oil the bowl and let it rise covered until doubled. About 2-5 hours.
Stage 3:
Divide into 14-16 pieces (depending how big you want them). Roll each under the palm of the hand, and form balls.
Roll the balls on a floured surface, cover the rolled pitas and let it rest 15 min.
Baking stage:
Bake the pita on the hot stone for 4-5 minutes. If you want them softer pull them out before they get too browned. I take them out about 30 sec after they puffed.
Pull them out and stack them on top of each other and cover with a towel.
