This is wonderful, and writing like this reminds us so much of the small places we find our common humanity, and goodness knows we need that so much at the moment. Thank you.
Awesome Caroline. I've never thought tarragon to be that liquoricey, but I think you're spot on! Really enjoyed reading this. I have been to Georgia, but next stop, Armenia!
Thanks Caroline. A highpoint of our first visit to Yerevan was the Lavash ladies in the market. They insisted that I be photographed with them and we still laugh at the pic of me (at 5ft 4) towering over them like an unkempt, scrawny giant next to the tiny glamorous women with their coiffured hair, perfect makeup and long painted nails!
“I ate hungrily with my eyes first, anticipating the taste, whilst feeling slightly thunderstruck that until now I had lived without the knowledge that such beautiful and otherworldly breads existed.”
Unsurprisingly beautifully described.
Thank you for sharing this piece.
Much to learn and discover!
The Armenian spiritual process of bread making is interesting too.
Ahhh, thank you Caroline! Lavash Life forever
I hope you don’t mind, you know I’m a fan. All hail lavash!
Mind?! I’m honored!!

Lavash, just sublime. Bread of heaven they say, Bread of Life…

Armenia is an absolute GEM.
