HOW TO MAKE LAVASH: First fire up the brick oven. Some ovens are right in the ground. They then have a pit for the "baker " to stand in so she doesn't have to stoop.
Next, one lady will roll out a piece of dough about two feet by 14-ish inches.
Next, the other baker places the dough on a fabric "cushion". (That's what it looked like)
The next step happened so fast, I didn't get a picture of it....she actually slammed the dough on the cushion against the wall of the oven. She quickly took the cushion out. When it was baked just a little brown, a few bubbles, a little crisp, she took it off with the metal kind of hook, as you can see in the picture.
Here's Evie holding up a sheet of lavash. It's their "bread", eaten with each meal. People handle it with their hands, by taking it out of the bag and putting several pieces around the table. We ate it with meals, even had peanut butter (taken from Evie's gifts from Stanley's school class....sorry, Ev, we will replace it soon) and jam, even a banana, or meat.
