Crispy Lavash

Cultural Context

Lavash is a traditional Armenian flatbread, often associated with communal meals and celebrations. Its origins date back thousands of years, making it a staple in Armenian cuisine. The bread is typically baked in a tandoor, giving it a unique texture and flavor, but modern adaptations have made it accessible for home baking. Today, crispy lavash is enjoyed not only in Armenia but also in various Middle Eastern and Mediterranean cuisines, often served with dips or used as wraps.
