Flat Bread

IMG_2991It’s made in fired ovens. David thinks that it’s two layers and the ‘puffy’ bread rises because of the construction of the dough. To me the dough looks like a single pancake. They make a lot of it. It’s the sliced bread of life here. IMG_2992It’s the Middle East equivalent of French bread served in NY. And then there’s the Tandoori oven. They slap pieces of dough against the sides and make another form of bread. When I attended a banquet at a home, there was a portable Tandoori available for on the spot baking. My assessment – it sure beats sliced white ‘Wonder Bread.’IMG_3001It looks like there’s something stuffed inside. Either way the food is good.IMG_2999Since we were in the outdoor kitchen, it afforded us a view to some pretty good cooking. IMG_3002
