Since ancient times bread is very sacred in Uzbekistan. Each region has own type of bread, own peculiar technology of baking, own inimitable taste.
Samarkand bread is really special. It differs in its sizes, design, pomp and weight. Even completely dried, it can be properly sprinkled with water, heated in tandoor (oven, microwave oven) and eaten.
