Lavash / Lavosh/ Lawaash or Armenian cracker bread. These are the names of popular bread in Armenian Cuisine. Hence, a Lavash is a type of unleavened flatbread which is served as a garnish or an appetizer.
I did not know about this savoury goodness before my education in bakery and patisserie. Since then I’ve been making them from time to time and served them with tea or as a party snack.
Traditional lavash bread is cooked in tandoor. But I have made a savoury lavash cracker which is rolled out thin and baked till it is crispy.
My savoury lavash cracker is :
• Eggless
• Not fried
• can be made and enjoyed with a dip.
The same dough can be used to make breadsticks or soup sticks! Hence, it’s a multipurpose dough!
