Question

[ELI5] When baking pita bread, why do the brown spots congregate in small areas rather than evenly across?

In: Chemistry

Answer 1

Because the bread bakes unevenly and small pockets form in the bread, resulting in those in contact with the heat source to heat faster. Resulting in little brown spots.
