What it is

The bread that is a tablecloth: huge, paper-thin sheets of lavash baked in a clay tonir oven, UNESCO-listed as Armenia's cultural heritage. Ingredients: flour, water, salt, a piece of old dough (starter). Recipe: 1) Knead a simple dough; rest. 2) Roll into large ovals. 3) Stretch over a padded cushion and slap onto the tonir wall. 4) Bake 30 seconds until blistered. Serve: soft for wrapping khorovats and cheese, dried for winter and re-softened with water. Flavor: wheaty, blistered, the vessel of every Armenian meal. History: lavash baking — women working in coordinated rhythm around the tonir — was inscribed by UNESCO in 2014; dried lavash kept villages through winters for millennia. See also: Khorovats, Gata.
