About This Recipe

Armenian lavash is a versatile flatbread that pairs well with various dishes. Its unique texture enhances any meal.

Yeast Activation: Using active dry yeast allows the dough to rise, creating a light and airy flatbread.
High Heat Baking: Baking at a high temperature achieves that characteristic puff and golden crust.
Kneading Technique: Kneading the dough develops gluten, ensuring the lavash has the right elasticity.

Chef's Pro Tip: For optimal softness, cover the baked lavash with a cloth immediately after removing from the oven.
