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. Cook on a hot saj or griddle, turning as needed.

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

Cook's notes

Add water gradually because different flours absorb differently; keep the dough appropriately soft or moist for the bread style. The baking surface or oven should be fully preheated.

Background

This item belongs to the food traditions of Ilam and the western Zagros, connected with Kurdish and Luri cultures, pastoralism, grains, mountain herbs, and local breads.
