How to easily and successfully work with pita bread
Crab sticks or fatty expensive salmon - no matter what filling you make the hero of the dish. The rules for twisting pita rolls are the same.
- We cut the canvas with scissors - it's more convenient.
- Do not open the package in advance, otherwise the pita bread will dry out.
- If accidentally dried up, sprinkle with water or coat with a small amount of water / sauce (a silicone brush will help).
- For hitching, the roll should be stuffed with a homogeneous filling with small elements, where there is enough sauce. Or initially coat the sheet with a wet viscous composition - mayonnaise, ketchup, sour cream sauce, beaten egg, curd cheese, etc.
What to do so that the roll is soaked and easily cut into portions?
After we rolled the roll, lay it seam down on cling film and carefully wrap it in it. In this form, we keep the snack in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours. For cutting, we choose the sharpest knife and do not make the rolls too thin (the thickness of the roll piece is from 3 cm).
How to choose good crab sticks
- Choose chilled over frozen. According to the results of an independent examination from the TV program " Test purchase» good quality for products from TM "Meridian" and "Russian Field".
- If we buy a frozen product, we make sure that there is no ice and snow inside the package. This is a sign of a dangerous multiple freeze.
- We carefully read the composition. Fish meat (surimi) should be the first ingredient, and potato starch is safer than soy.
- The coloring of the sticks also partly helps to make right choice. Sticks, red on one side only, not very bright shade - the best option.

- 1 egg grade C1;
- 80 g of processed cheese;
- 40 g of hard cheese;
- mayonnaise for dressing (I add about the same as regular vegetable salad, 3-4 tablespoons);
- chopped green onions and dill;
- 1-2 cloves of garlic (the more garlic, the sharper the roll will turn out);
- salt.
Step-by-step recipe for pita roll with crab sticks
Boil a hard-boiled egg, cool completely cold water, peel off the shell. Sliced crab sticks and egg small cubes put in a deep plate or bowl. Grate both types of cheese there on a fine grater.
Rinse fresh herbs under cold water, shake off and chop finely (cut off the white part of the stem from the onion so that it does not taste bitter). Add mayonnaise, chopped herbs, garlic and salt to taste, passed through a press to the filling ingredients. Stir until a homogeneous mass is obtained.
Now as for the pita bread. It needs to be deployed beforehand. But in no case should it be left to lie in the air, otherwise it will very quickly turn into something that tastes like paper. So immediately grease the pita bread with a thin layer of mayonnaise. And let it lie down for 7-10 minutes. This is done so that the roll is easy to wrap. Then spread the filling over the surface of the mayonnaise-soaked pita bread.
Roll up into a tight roll (the denser, the more aesthetic the cut will turn out) and, packed in cling film, put in the refrigerator for a couple of hours (the hungriest can take a sample in an hour).
Cut the roll with crab meat thin slices, arrange on a plate and, garnished with fresh herbs, serve.

- garlic - 2 cloves (optional)
For mayonnaise sauce mix crushed garlic with mayonnaise, if desired, you can add a little salt and pepper.
Three cucumbers on a grater. If you wish, you can first remove the peel. We leave the cucumber in a separate bowl - it will release the juice, which is recommended to be squeezed out a little and drained so that the roll does not “blur”.
Three crab sticks.
Lubricate the pita bread with the sauce prepared in advance - you only need half. Distribute crab sticks evenly. Put the second sheet of pita bread on top and also grease with sauce. Next, evenly distribute the cucumber chips and Korean carrot. We twist into a roll, cut into 2-3 parts and send to soak in the refrigerator.
On a note. If desired, Korean-style carrots can be cooked at home. But it is worth doing it the day before the preparation of the roll.
