What food do people in Armenia eat?
Armenian cuisine is rich and varied, and contains traces of all the invaders who come this way. Notable foods include: * lavash, a flatbread made with flour, water and salt, traditionally baked in clay-lined ovens called toneer * dolma, grape leaves (or often cabbage, eggplants, paprikas) stuffed with a savoury mixture (usually rice, onions, minced beef or other ingredients) * bastourma, a cured and spiced beef * khorovats, an Armenian-style barbecue, with beef, lamb, or chicken * matzoun, Armenian yogurt * boreg, a filo pastry case stuffed with cheese and chopped parsley * pakhlava, layered pastry with a walnut filling Above all, vegetables and fruit are very fresh and taste excellent, as there is little use of pesticides and most agricultural produce is consumed near where it is grown.
