Not like a show for tourists, but for real life.
Several women gather together and bake lavash for the whole winter at oncefor a few families.
We live in an Armenian village and slowly learning the culture and everyday traditions of our neighbors. This is not something you read in books — it just happens around you.

Recently my wife was invited to take part in this baking. Honestly, it was an amazing experience.
From preparing the dough, to sticking lavash to the hot walls of the tonir, to drying it and storing it for winter.
And she says it was the most tasty bread she ever ate in her life. I belive her 🙂
We made a small video about this day and posted it on YouTube.
If you’re curious how real traditional lavash is still baked in villages — you might enjoy it.
Just wanted to share.
Armenia keeps surprising us 🇦🇲. Did you know that in Armenia there are still villages where lavash is baked the old way, in tonir 🫓🔥?
