How this kind of dish is made

The source documents this dish but not a method specific to it. The steps below describe how dishes of this kind are generally made.

  1. Combine the flour and dry ingredients; gradually add the listed liquid until a dough forms.

  2. Knead until reasonably smooth and elastic.

  3. Cover and rest the dough briefly.

  4. Divide and shape the dough to the traditional thickness and form.

  5. Bake in a hot tandoor or oven until cooked and lightly browned.

  6. Cool on a clean cloth or rack and serve fresh.

Cook's notes

Avoid adding unnecessary extra flour while shaping because a dry dough produces a tougher bread. Bake until the center is cooked without letting the crust become excessively dry.

Background

This item is associated with Bakhtiari culture and the pastoral and nomadic life of the Zagros, where dairy, meat, saj breads, and mountain herbs are important.
